Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has put a strong emphasis on providing supports for businesses in the upcoming budget

BUDGET DAY IS just over seven weeks away, but much of what is contained in the expected giveaway budget has already been well flagged by government leaders.

Varadkar insisted he has not given up on the €1,000 tax cut pledge and said Fine Gael-led governments have given some earning €40,000 a year a tax cut of €3,000 since 2014. In terms of the tax package itself, the programme for government sets out the indexation of tax bands and tax credits “so that more people don’t end up paying the higher rate of tax”, Varadkar said.The Taoiseach said the tax package of €1.1 billion announced in the summer economic statement is the net package not the gross package, stating that it is possible to add to that package through other revenue raising measures, similar to what was done last year.
