Catherine Murphy
Question:107 Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Finance his views on whether the price of diesel for coach and bus companies should be lowered to help offset the negative impacts on the industry brought about by the abolition of the excise duty rebate in 2006, which added 34.5 cent to the cost of a litre of diesel; his further views on whether a cost-benefit analysis should be carried out to determine whether lowering the price of diesel for coach and bus companies would generate activity in the sector that might lead to an overall increase in revenue for the State; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
