Darren O'Rourke (SF), Meath East

We now face significant gas price increases. Much has been rumoured in recent hours and while we hope it will not come to pass it looks as though it will if some of the people I have been talking to are anything to go by. Deputy Ó Murchú outlined the specific circumstances in regard to this case but I wish to make a broader point regarding the national heat study, which was published during the week. Carlinn Hall is a poor example of the opportunity that exists for district heating, but the report makes clear the need to move to these types of systems to harness the waste energy and heat from industry and the great potential in that regard.
