Calls To Delay Excise Duty Increases

About this episode

Opposition parties have urged the Government to postpone plans to return fuel excise duty costs to their full price due to ongoing concerns over the cost-of-living crisis.

Vat charged on electricity, gas, petrol and diesel is expected to be €238m higher this year due to the worsening energy crisis.

Louise Burne, Political Correspondent at the Irish Examiner, and Kevin McPartlan, Chief Executive of Fuels For Ireland, join The Last Word to discuss.
