Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I very much agree that if a person’s mobile home is his or her principal residence, he or she should benefit from the €600 credit. I think a solution has been worked out on Traveller accommodation, although I am not sure how that works. I know both Ministers, Deputies Humphreys and Ryan, are trying to work out a solution through energy bills or the social welfare system. I agree we need to sort this out. The intention was that every household would receive €600 in energy credits. A family or a person living in a mobile home, which is their principal primary residence, are a household. We have to find a way to fix this. I appreciate the Deputy's frustration in raising this issue three times. We will find a way.
