Under the Climate Action and Low Carbon Development Act 2015 the Department of Health will be required to submit a Sectoral Adaptation Plan for the Health Sector, for approval by government. Preparation of sectoral plans will require consultation with other Ministers, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Climate Change Advisory Council and be cognisant of the National Adaptation Framework which is being developed by the Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment.
My Department is continuing to examine how it will meet its requirements in accordance with the Climate Action and Low Carbon Development Act.
