Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 July 2019
216. Deputy John Lahart asked the Minister for Finance his plans to reduce parking facilities for civil and public servants in the city within the city cordon area in the context of the Climate Action Plan 2019; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [33376/19]
View answerThe Climate Action Plan was agreed by Government last month. The Plan is not prescriptive on the question of parking for civil and public servants. However, I note that it has a multi-annual focus and that it envisages the development and implementation “of planning rules and guidelines across residential and non-residential parking locations for EV charging infrastructure.
I am of the view that policy in relation to the matter raised by the Deputy should evolve taking account of the general thrust of the Climate Action Plan.
