Written answers

In line with the recommendation of the 2019 Climate Action Plan, I equalised the rates of electricity tax for business and non-business customers in Budget 2020.  

At that time, it was estimated that the additional revenue arising from this measure would be some €2.5 million.   It is not possible at this time to state the potential impact of Covid-19 on the 2020 yield.
