It seems the news for motorists is not good in the Budget as the Government is expected to hike the price of petrol and diesel by 4 and 5 cent a litre respectively from midnight as the Carbon Tax kicks in.
It has been reported that drivers will be able to get €1500 from the Government if you have a car older than ten years and trade it in for a new greener model.
The Carbon Tax won't be introduced for home heating oil and briquettes until next May.
