The gap is growing for the vulnerable areas on the basis of the cost of living. The reduction in excise that Mr. Hogan mentioned had virtually no impact because fuel has not come down further in price. It is still at the rate it was. We have reduced VAT on goods such as coal and heating oil. That will have no impact, particularly in rural Ireland.
