Coalition rolling out €250m rates refund, but backbenchers and Ministers urging Harris to go beyond this measure

is set to face a renewed push from within his party to front-load moves on business supports before the summer asSome in the party are even privately of the view that Mr Harris should consider a break with convention and introduce taxation changes before the budget — with targeted reductions in VAT and employer’s PRSI for certain under-pressure sectors.

Emer Higgins, the Dublin Mid-West TD who has been tipped as a potential junior minister, said it would be “ideal” to implement changes before the budget, adding that a commitment needed to come beforehand. “Even if it is not possible , we need to signal intent,” she said. “If you’re able to give them certainty about measures coming in to support them, that would give huge clarity to employers,” she said.

New Fine Gael leader Simon Harris has ruled out an early general election, stating he wants the Coalition to run its full term.
