Answer
Question 10 - AQO 649/22-27
The Green Energy Skills Industry Reference Group, now known as the Green Skills Delivery Group, is an industry led sub-group of the NI Skills Council tasked with the development of a Green Skills Action Plan.
My department will look to support the delivery of the action plan through its existing programmes as well as the new Skills Fund that I have recently established as part of the 2024-25 budget process.
Green skills are critical to the delivery of my economic vision and I look forward to considering how best to support the Action Plan when it is submitted.
