Tánaiste Leo Varadkar has said the Government is working on a Budget 2023 package for business in an effort to help with increasing energy costs.

Speaking on RTÉ's Six One News, he said:"We didn't do all that we did during the pandemic, to save jobs and businesses, only to allow viable businesses now to go to the wall during this energy crisis.

He said that there was a brief period at the start of the year when the outlook for the economy was bright, but the war has changed the situation, especially in relation to energy and commodity pricing. The minister said that tax revenues stood at almost €50 billion by the end of August, which was up by almost €10 billion on the same period a month ago.

"We in Government are very much aware that many are struggling to make ends meet as we approach a difficult winter", he said, adding that with public finances"back on the road to sustainability", the Government"has the ability to help on a significant scale with the cost of living challenge in this budget".Minister McGrath said that the cost of living is the"key objective framing government discussions" around Budget 2023.
