Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe reveals he'll have €700million to spend in Budget 2020

This will give him plenty of scope for vote-winning initiatives ahead of the General Election next year.The package will see €2.8billion available for spending, tax cuts or both in October.

This leaves €700million for Mr Donohoe, but the elephant in the TK Whitaker Room in the Department of Finance yesterday was Brexit. Political opponents of the Government last night said Mr Donohoe hasn’t taken enough precautions in case of a hard Brexit.
