Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 October 2025
188. Deputy Pa Daly asked the Minister for Climate, Energy and the Environment if the €89 million uplift referenced in Budget 2026 refers to an increase on what was allocation in Budget 2025 and not the total amount that was allocated for 2025, as outlined in the revised estimates 2025. [55176/25]
View answerThe €89 million referenced in the budget reflects the increase in funding from carbon tax receipts, rising from €469m this year to €558m in 2026, for Residential and Community Retrofit programmes. This increase means that more funding than ever will be available to make homes warmer, more comfortable and less expensive to heat, leaving households less vulnerable to changes in energy costs.
