Eamon provides the analysis of the Budget from Social Justice Ireland – an in-depth analysis of the macro economic position – which doesn’t represent a paradigm shift, the missed opportunity to borrow and invest, and lack of progress on core welfare rates and disability support.
Tricia highlights issues around the carbon tax and welfare, and calls for an Oireachtas Committee on Poverty and Inequality to hold the government to account and achieve progress on addressing Poverty and Inequality.
