I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the information the Deputy has requested is not readily available.

However, the European Commission through the Oil Bulletin presents consumer prices and net prices (excluding duties and taxes) of petroleum products in each EU member state each week.The Oil Bulletin is updated weekly and can be accessed on the internet by visiting .

The Tables below have been produced using data from this website. Table 1 sets out the price of unleaded petrol and Table 2 sets out the price of diesel in each member state for the last 10 years.



Table 1 - Unleaded Petrol - Prices are in euros and per 1000 litres
