Green Party expected to block introduction of summer electricity credit

The Green Party is expected to block the introduction of a fourth electricity credit this summer as the government meets today to discuss a new cost of living package.

The Greens will argue the roll out of any further universal support to families to off set their energy bills should be delayed until later in the year.

According to the Irish Independent the Green Party said the most vulnerable families should be prioritized for support in the coming weeks through the existing social welfare system.
