Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

I understand that the legislative responsibility for fuel quality lies with the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government under S.I 155 of 2011. My Department has no function in this matter.

Customs and Excise comes under the responsibility of the Revenue Commissioners and the Minister for Finance.
