(Return tabled) Question No. 152 Ms. Kirsty Duncan: With respect to the development of unconventional gas resources, including shale, tight and coal bed methane, and its possible impacts on the environment: (a) what, if any, research has the government undertaken regarding the development of unconventional gas resources, (i) what was the scope of this research in the areas of, but not limited to, air quality, aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem impacts, economic impacts, occupational risks, public safety concerns, and seismic risks, (ii) what, if any, resources did the government provide for this research, (iii) what, if any, process was e ...[+++]stablished to ensure the independence of the researchers, their research, and their findings, (iv) what, if any, case studies were considered as a part of this research, (v) what, if any, scenarios regarding the development of unconventional gas resources were developed as frameworks for the research, (vi) what economic, environmental and social impacts were identified by this research, (vii) what, if any, priority research areas were identified for further study as a result of this research, (viii) what, if any, departments were involved in this research, (ix) what, if any, action was undertaken to ensure inter-departmental cooperation throughout the research process, (x) what, if any, gaps or weaknesses in the regulatory framework did the research identify; (b) what, if any, research has the government undertaken regarding balancing shale gas' potential contribution to energy security with environmental risks; (c) what are the sources of greenhouse gas emissions associated with unconventional gas; (d) has the government developed a process to determine the overall carbon footprint of shale gas throughout the life cycle of natural gas use, if not, why not, and, if so, (i) what federal departments are involved in this process, (ii) how does the government ensure inter-departmental collaboration on this process, (iii) what is the p ...

New measures to be proposed in a future strategy should include: common EU criteria and guidelines (although the practical details of the action programme must be determined at national level to allow for tailoring of general criteria to local circumstances); training of, and advice to, farmers, farm workers, seasonal workers and other users in order to reduce environmental and health risks, part-funded through a fair levy on pest ...[+++]icides which should preferably also be introduced in third countries to avoid distortion of competition and; attention on reducing pesticide-related risks, which may also involve reducing the quantities of chemicals used, particularly when tailored to national, regional and local requirements.

" (5) The Ministers shall conduct research or studies relating to a safer environment for children and shall (a) identify environmental pollutants commonly used or found in areas that are reasonably accessible to children; (b) create a list that has been reviewed by a team of scientists of environmental pollutants identified under paragraph (a) to have known, probable, or suspected health risks to children; (c) create a scientifically reviewed list of safer-for-children substances and products recommended by the Ministers for use in ...[+++] areas that are reasonably accessible to children and that will minimize potential risks to children from exposure to environmental pollutants; (d) establish guidelines to help reduce and eliminate the exposure of children to environmental pollutants in areas reasonably accessible to children, including advice on how to establish an integrated environmental pollutant reduction program; (e) create a family right-to-know information kit that includes a summary of helpful information and guidance to families, including the list created under paragraph (c), the guidelines established under paragraph (d), information on the potential health effects of environmental pollutants, practical suggestions on how parents may reduce their children's exposure to environmental pollutants and other relevant information, as determined by the Ministers; (f) make all information gathered under this subsection available to governments and the public; and (g) review and update the lists created under paragraphs (b) and (c) at least every two years" .
