The Government is reportedly set to hike the amount of tax imposed on energy firms that discovery oil and gas off Ireland’s coast.
At present, such companies pay just 25% in tax on their profits.
However, reports this morning say the cabinet has approved new plans to raise this to 40% in some cases.
The move has reportedly been prompted in part by the controversy surrounding the Corrib gas project and the low return it will have for Irish taxpayers.
Opponents of the project say the Government effectively allowed Shell to make massive profits from the exploitation of Irish natural resources without ensuring a similar benefit for the Irish Exchequer.
They say Statoil’s involvement in the project means the Norwegian Government will actually benefit more than Irish taxpayers.

The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
