I strongly support the call for a debate on the Forfás report. Recently, while travelling in the south of Ireland, I noticed a difference of 28 cent per litre in the price of diesel.

The catering trade is killing the goose that laid the golden egg. We are depending on tourism but the trade is contributing in no small measure to the rise in the consumer price index by adding two cents here and ten cents there to its prices and, in many cases, a further 10% or 15% in service charges. At least Dick Turpin was a decent man – he wore a mask.
