Cheapest Galway filling station 30 cent more for diesel and petrol than four weeks ago

Loughnanes in Turloughmore as of Sunday was selling diesel for 1.88 per litre and petrol at 1.82 a litre putting it at one of the lowest for price across the county.

This has jumped massively from the end of July where the cheapest filling station was Applegreen on the Tuam Road which was coming in at 1.54 per litre for fuel.

It comes as Government passed a motion on cuts to excise duty on petrol and diesel to be phased out from November.

Tánaiste Simon Harris said it will give “breathing space” to people.

He said last week: "We have recalled the Dáil for a very specific and immediate purpose. There was an immediate issue requiring an immediate decision, and today we wish to take that decision.

"The Budget will provide the appropriate opportunity to consider broader questions around affordability, taxation policies, fuel poverty, and how we support households in the here and now with the real cost of living pressures that they face."

He added that the Government is engaged in "responsible decision making in an uncertain world, and it's what this resolution today does".

Harris finished by saying: "We also have a responsibility to level with the people. No government, no government anywhere in the world, can completely insulate their country from a global energy shock.

"No government can indefinitely use the tax system to cancel movements in international commodity markets. To suggest so is dishonest politics.”
