Confidence in Government: Motion
Dail Éireann — 2026-04-14
============================================================

Jennifer Murnane O'Connor (FF), Carlow-Kilkenny

The Government is really showing support. It wants to work with our hauliers, our farmers, our agricultural contractors and our bus operators. It is important that people have certainty, particularly those involved in businesses and who are the hardest hit.
I know that some are struggling. We all know that. Some people in my constituency of Carlow-Kilkenny have come to me over the past few days about the cost of heating oil, and that is a concern. This is why it was important to delay the increase in the carbon tax-----
