What will be in Budget 2023?
The Budget will see close to €7billion in extra spending next year, while a separate cost of living package worth almost €3billion will also be announced.
Social welfare is likely to be one of the biggest winners in the tense Budget negotiations. It’s understood there will be double welfare payments as part of the cost of living package, on top of a double payment again at Christmas.
Workers are also set to see more money in their pockets through an adjustment in tax bands which could be worth hundreds of euro extra a year depending on how much they earn.
