One hand knows exactly what the other hand is doing which is why we are bringing forward this measure. If the change in biofuel was happening and it was not accompanied by the offset that I am putting in place, Sinn Féin would be critical of that. We are putting in place the offset and the Deputy is still critical of it. This is a measure that has the potential to and will affect the price of fuel. I am doing it to try to protect hard-pressed car owners from the effect this change would have on the price at the pump and the Deputy is still critical of me doing it.
