Next month, I will lead a fact-finding mission to Belfast for my @europarl_en trade colleagues to meet MLAs, business, and civil society.
It's time to dial down the political rhetoric and listen to the perspectives of those living and working in NI.

Earlier in the year, I proposed a ‘Fit for 55’ label for public interest renewable energy projects.
I am happy to see elements of this in both the #REDIII and #RepowerEU plan. Planning authorities must have the resources they need to act with speed.

Its positive to see @KadriSimson in Ireland this week.
The Commissioner is right in highlighting the need to streamline planning and permitting processes to get more renewables deployed.
I have proposed ‘Fit for 55’ label to do just that!
