Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 December 2021
169. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications the extent to which electricity generation and production costs here are in line with those in other EU member states; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [61958/21]
View answerWhile this data is not routinely compiled by Commission for Regulation of Utilities (CRU), I have asked them to engage with the Deputy on the matter.
Under the Electricity Regulation Act, the CRU is directly responsible for the performance of its functions to a Joint Committee of the Oireachtas, and not to me as Minister. The Deputy may wish to note that CRU provide a dedicated email address for Oireachtas members, which enables them raise questions directly to CRU at oireachtas@cru.ie for timely direct reply.
