The finance bill published yesterday in the Republic of Ireland , deals with the issue of green diesel ( aka red diesel) tax as per the ending of an EU degrogation.
A tax of 36 euro cents ( appox) , bringing the cost of the diesel upto approc 1.13 euros per litre( on average) will be added. However this tax will be self certified and user reported. Users will continue to pay the rebated price to the seller of the diesel, keep the receipts , and pay the difference before 31march each year. it will remain legal to have "green " diesel ( marked gas oil) in the tank of a boat
The system is similar to that which is being introduced in the UK ( it is understood)
All in all a good "commonn sense" approach as sources of supply will be maintained and usage for heating etc can be deducted by the user.
