€119m rise in energy tax receipts

Despite the cost of living crisis, the taxman took in €3.678billion compared to € 3.559 billion in the previous year. The total since January already stands at €1.1billion.

Aontu leader Peadar Toibin said it's an "outrage".

He added: "What this shows us is any time ministers stood in the Dail and said they were doing everything they could to tackle fuel poverty, they were secretly creaming a fortune off the crisis."
