Cost of Living Issues
Dail Éireann — 2022-11-15
============================================================

Ruairí Ó Murchú (SF), Louth

The Aire spoke about the electricity credits. In this regard, I would like to bring up an issue. Would it be possible to consider a bespoke solution for communal heating systems? Constituents of mine in Carlinn Hall have a gas-fed communal heating system that presents a particular anomaly. In the long term, the only solution is to change the source, but in the short term we need to mitigate the pressure people are under. If possible, could the temporary business energy support scheme payment be made to the companies that run such schemes, once it is ensured that the residents get the break?
I also wish to raise a related issue. Have we dealt with anomalies such as shared meters at caravan parks, etc.?
