There was considerable disappointment and surprise that one of the first decisions made by the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources, Deputy Eamon Ryan, was the abolition of an important grant scheme which enabled householders to install renewable energy systems in their homes. All we have now is the promise of a Supplementary Estimate for a very minimalist scheme. When is it intended this Supplementary Estimate will be introduced and will the Tánaiste ensure sufficient money is provided to allow the scheme continue into the future?
