Final fuel support scheme to be signed off today

The final piece of the fuel support scheme will be rubberstamped today.

Ministers will sign off on payments to farmers, fishers, hauliers and coach operators, which will be backdated to March.

The measures introduced in response to nationwide fuel protests will see those industries given €1,350 per vehicle for the first 5 vehicles, €790 for numbers 6 through 20 and €300 per vehicle for anything above that.
