Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I can and I will. A sum of €250 million has been set aside in the budget for a cost-of-business scheme which the Minister, Deputy Coveney, is developing. That is double the amount that was drawn down from TBESS. We thought there would be a bigger drawdown from TBESS but it appears that energy bills did not go up as much as we thought they would. Many people had fixed prices and other prices which helped them. This scheme will next year provide businesses with twice as much as TBESS did.
