Robert Molloy

Ceist:

117 Mr. Molloy asked the Minister for Enterprise and Employment the reason there are petrol stations in Ireland allowed to advertise for only high grade octane unleaded petrol; and if, in view of the fact that if consumers used the low grade octane unleaded fuel, it would cost the consumer approximately £17 million less per annum.

Minister for Enterprise and Employment (Mr. Quinn)
