Business Regulation
Dail Éireann — 2025-06-19
============================================================

Rose Conway-Walsh (SF), Mayo

I thank Deputy Gibney for accommodating me. I did not have an opportunity before Question Time began to ask her to do so.
I am seeking an update on the newly established and hugely important cost of business advisory forum, which met recently for the first time. Costs in general are spiralling, with the cost of energy being one of the major difficulties reported by the SME sector. I am pleased that ESB and EirGrid are members of the forum. Will the Minister confirm whether they have indicated any reductions in the cost of energy?
