The witnesses have articulated their position. However, if we go further up the food chain, we know that big international oil and fuel companies are reporting super profits, a crisis-related excess of profits. The European Union has responded and indicated how that should provide options to the Government to deal with it. Will that be the case for the big providers in Ireland? Will they report crisis-related excessive profits at the end of this year compared with previous years? That is the public's real concern.
