Text

I thank the Minister for her detailed update. However, when it comes to energy in the Department for the Economy, dither and delay seem to be the order of the day. Tomorrow, the Committee will receive an update from the Department and Invest Northern Ireland on the pausing of the capital grant energy scheme, as a result of concerns that the scheme is supporting questionable energy efficiency practices. When will the Minister get to grips with the energy division?
