Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements
Dail Éireann — 2022-06-01
============================================================

Paul Murphy (PBP), Dublin South-West

The ESB, Energia, Airtricity - every single electricity company in this country has increased its prices and its profits. In response to a parliamentary question we were told that a 50% windfall tax would raise €300 million. If the Tory Government can do it, even with some horrific loopholes, why can we not have a windfall tax on these super-profits?
