The Agriculture Minister is defending the decision to only give farmers 24-hours’ notice before an announcement on an emissions pricing plan.
Damien O'Connor's unveiled the Government plan to reduce agricultural emissions, shifting reporting requirements to late next year and pricing to late 2025.

Damien O'Connor told Heather du-Plessis Allan that there wasn't a lot of time, with the decision only made at Monday's Cabinet meeting.
He says they gave them as much notice as they could while trying to give as much certainty as possible.
