I propose to take Questions Nos. 144 and 145 together.

The national air quality monitoring network is operated, maintained and monitored by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) through the Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Programme (AAMP), which is funded by my Department. The siting of the stations is managed by the EPA in alignment with the criteria set out in EU law. Details of the locations of all monitoring stations currently in operation, along with real-time and historic data from each station, can be found at the website www.airquality.ie.

Question No. 145 answered with Question No. 144.
