Budget 2026: The key points and analysis
The Government has described Budget 2026 as “sensible” and one which will “protect jobs and protect growth” in Ireland given an uncertain global economy.
But some Opposition members have described it as “very disappointing”, with “ordinary people left in the cold” given a lack of a distinct cost-of-living package and no changes to personal income tax for workers.
Either way, Budget 2026 is a more constrained package compared to other budgets delivered in recent years, with one-off measures replaced by more targeted and permanent supports.
