Budget 2026: What to expect

Today’s Budget comes at a time of global volatility and domestic challenges. Expectations are high for measures that deliver competitiveness and confidence for Ireland’s future.

Preparing for Budget 2026

These measures will be critical to sustaining competitiveness and resilience in the months ahead.
