I propose to take Questions Nos. 269 and 270 together.

The Government is fully committed to supporting the transition to zero-emission and the ambitious target to have 30% of private car fleet switched to electric by 2030.

Zero Emission Vehicles Ireland was established in July 2022 and voted funding was allocated for EV grants as set out below:
