Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 27 January 2021
58. Deputy Cathal Crowe asked the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications if he will provide statistics on air quality around County Clare for the month of December 2020; the way in which this compares to the same month in 2019; and the way in which it compares with acceptable EPA and EU standards. [4145/21]
View answerThe Environmental Protection Agency is responsible for monitoring ambient air quality in Ireland via the national Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Programme 2017 to 2022, and my Department does not compile statistics from individual monitoring stations.
Real-time and other data from these monitoring stations is available online at www.airquality.ie, and the most recent report on Ireland’s air quality can be found at https://www.epa.ie/pubs/reports/air/quality/epaairqualityreport2019.html.
