Energy Prices
Dail Éireann — 2022-09-22
============================================================

Pearse Doherty (SF), Donegal

The energy crisis has plunged households into real hardship and uncertainty. Many people are worried about how they will make ends meet this winter. The energy crisis has been with us for some time now, with spikes in prices in bills last year. What is the Minister's current position on the levying of windfall taxes on energy companies on the back of this crisis? What position has he adopted within the Government as well as in the Eurogroup and ECOFIN since October 2021? Has that position changed during that time?
