The upcoming Budget, the last of the current Coalition, is seen as crucial ahead of a looming general election with an expectation among many observers that it will be another giveaway package before the country goes to the polls. He indicated he would put money aside for the Future Ireland Funds and the Climate, Infrastructure and Nature Fund set up by his predecessor Michael McGrath.

He said the upcoming Summer Economic Statement which sets the tax and expenditure parameters of the Budget and he said there will be a “very focused tax package and Government will have to consider the wider asks.”
