Commitment
Accelerate decarbonisation with a just transition
What this means
- This is a promise made by the Labour Party in its 2024 general election manifesto, published on 17 November 2024.[source]
- Labour committed to using the power of the State to speed up decarbonisation and meet Ireland's climate targets and carbon budgets.[source]
- The commitment includes ensuring a just transition, meaning workers and communities affected by the shift away from fossil fuels would be supported.[source]
- This remains a promise only. No delivery date was set and no body or officeholder was named as responsible for carrying it out.[source]
- For accountability purposes, voters can use this commitment to assess whether Labour, if in government, acts to meet climate targets while protecting affected workers.[source]
