The State has over €5billion in spare cash after record tax returns. The last energy rebate of €200 paid to every household in the country last April was a huge success.

With the cost of living, particular energy costs, soaring in recent months, it looks likely that the government will extend a rebate to households this year to tackle the impact.

It’s expected this measure could replace Tanaiste Leo Varadkar’s proposed new tax band rate which would have given middle income employees earning €40,000 an extra €1,000 in their annual take-home pay. Some of these include social welfare changes, as well as things that will help all households across the country.
