The question was asked if a fourth energy credit would be made available for households
Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has not ruled out the possibility that a further energy credit may be paid later in the year.
"We have one more energy credit left. What are you going to do for these people after that," she asked. In response, Taoiseach Varadkar admitted that people are seeing some really "eye-watering" bills at the moment. The head of Fine Gael and the Irish Government also mentioned a windfall tax on the big energy companies.
