The Cabinet has approved plans to pay three electricity credits worth €200 to every household in the country over the next six months.
One of the highlights of Budget 2023 was the announcement of a €600 electricity credit for households. This will be paid over three bills, and it is expected that households will receive the €200 credits in November, January and March - Dublin Live reports.
The Taoiseach told the Dail this afternoon that the Government is also considering how to help "certain categories that fall outside the framework" of the energy credit. It comes as Ireland is facing into a bleak winter without a guarantee power blackouts will not occur, due to energy supply issues as a result of the Russian war with Ukraine.
