CEO calls for review of Ireland's home heating VAT rates to reduce rural burden.

The CEO of Fuels for Ireland urges the government to reconsider VAT rates on home heating, noting that rural homes using oil pay 13.5% compared to 9% for gas, creating unfair costs. With 60% of rural households relying on oil, McPartland calls for a strategic, long-term review of fuel taxation to address disparities and high compliance costs in Ireland.
