Poll: What is most important to you in the Budget?

It’s that time of year again.

THERE HAS BEEN much speculation as to what will and won’t feature in next month’s Budget.

Brian Keegan, Director of Public Policy and Tax at the Institute of Chartered Accountants, told Morning Ireland tax changes in Budget 2019 could benefit workers by as little as €5 a week.

As always, there will be a push to increase spending in areas such as housing, health, education and crime prevention.
