Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Impact of Brexit on Haulage, Freight, the Ports and Ferry Companies: Discussion

Mr. Eugene Drennan:

Deputy Crowe referenced Luxembourg's freight. The cheapest fuel in Europe is in Luxembourg to keep the trucks rolling efficiently in and out of that country. In the budget, we got carbon tax. We were the only section that got taxation this year. We can take it while the price of fuel is low and Ireland has welcomed it, but as the price goes up, we cannot have it.
