Question 38: To ask the Minister for Finance his views on increasing the excise on fuel in the upcoming budget; if he will carry out an impact assessment on Border filling stations before such a decision is made including the loss of PAYE-PRSI, corporation tax and VAT; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

This question relates to potential Budgetary measures. It is the usual practice for the Minister for Finance not to speculate or comment in advance of the Budget what it will contain and I do not propose to deviate from that practice. The Deputy may wish to note that in relation to potential Budgetary measures such as this that cross-border issues are taken into consideration.
