The Taoiseach

I propose to take Questions Nos. 68 to 76, inclusive, together.

The Economic Division includes the Economic Policy Unit, the Housing and Infrastructure Unit, the Climate Action Unit and the Economic Development and Digital Unit.

The Division advises the Taoiseach on policy aimed at promoting a sustainable and resilient economy with a particular focus on jobs, competitiveness, labour market, enterprise, skills issues, and digital policy.

The Division maintains an overview of important sectoral or policy issues with wider economic impacts, including housing and infrastructure delivery, energy and climate action.

The Division also assists the work of the Cabinet Committees on:

• Economy, Trade and Competitiveness;

• Climate Action, Environment and Energy;

• Housing;

• Infrastructure; and

• Water Quality.
