Finance Bill 2026: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2026-06-17
============================================================

Pearse Doherty (SF), Donegal

I challenged the Minister of State to convince me as to why I should make my constituents' lives harder by agreeing to an increase in the price of petrol, diesel, gas and home heating oil every year for the next four years. He did not even try to convince me. These measures are based on a Government ideology or policy. It is the wrong one and, for that reason, I will be pressing amendment No. 1.
