Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Pre-Legislative Scrutiny of the General Scheme of the Energy (Windfall Gains in the Energy Sector) Bill 2023

Mr. John Burke:

I would like to keep the discussion around the general scheme. The Senator makes valid points about corporation tax, but we will not hit all of those issues here. On the points made by the Senator on stakeholder engagement and how that played out, companies made strong cases about how this would impact on them, their viability and future decisions. That was factored in. Ms Leacy can speak further on those engagements.
