As we speak, the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment is launching, in conjunction with the Irish Coalition 2030 group, a document on air pollution and cleaning our air. I ask the Leader to invite the Minister to debate this issue in the House as soon as possible. This is an issue of particular concern to me in the context of the Irish Cement plant in Castlemungret, County Limerick. I attended two public meetings recently with residents of the area.

The concern is whether the EPA is actually monitoring air quality, something I would like the Minister to address when he comes before the House. It appears that the EPA licenses, but the question is whether it monitors air quality. It is timely that the Minister is launching such a document today on air quality, but he should come before the House as quickly as possible for a debate on the issue.
