A North West TD is warning that changes to fuel rebate scheme could see the general public lose out on fuel savings in measures due to be announced tomorrow because of tax rules:


Coalition leaders will meet tonight to sign off on a package of energy relief measures.

It's set to include a cut to the excise duty on petrol and diesel and a potential double payment of fuel allowance.

While the Government is looking at measures to help certain industries - like increasing the fuel rebate for hauliers.

But Sinn Féin's Finance Spokesman Pearse Doherty says the general public may not necessary benefit from the changes
