Data centres, energy credits and airport caps: Minister Darragh O’Brien in conversation

Indo Politics spoke to Energy and Transport Minister Darragh O’Brien this week as Mary Regan and Cónal Thomas asked the Fianna Fail TD questions relating to several key issues in Ireland today. ­ As the US and Iran near a peace deal, can Irish citizens expect some relief on oil prices? ­ Should excise cuts be extended beyond the end-of-July deadline? ­ Can we expect energy credits to return in the next budget? ­ Should the State be helping out with network charges? ­ What about the cost and environmental impact of data centres in Ireland?  ­ And what does Fianna Fáil need to do to regain ground? ­ All this and more is discussed on the latest episode. ­ Indo Politics is part of the Trust Project.
