Excellent work completed by IEA Members recently on Ireland's #Budget2026 💶with high quality information, analysis and commentary. For a quick runthrough, take a look at our new LinkedIn post on our dedicated IEA page

1/7 We have a new blog post in our Beyond the Budget series, titled “Why corporation tax could be even more concentrated than you think”. It looks at how these tax revenues could be even more concentrated among tech and manufacturing groups than official data suggests.

1/16 This “Flash Release” gives the Council’s first read on Budget 2026. It explores some of the key areas that the Council will assess in its next Fiscal Assessment Report, due out in November.

1/4 Today’s fiscal monitor continues three recent trends: 1) spending is growing quickly; 2) corporation tax continues to be volatile and 3) underlying revenue continues to perform well.

1/6 We have a new blog post from our Beyond the Budget series. Today’s blog is titled “Planning, Permits, and Public Investment: Clearing the Path”. It examines the barriers to infrastructure investment in Ireland and how they can be resolved.

I enjoyed this chat with @LauraByrneStory for @thejournal_ie Explainer Podcast. Links to listen ⬇️

1/11 The Government released its Summer Economic Statement yesterday, outlining its plans for Budget 2026. Budget 2025 had planned a €3bn increase in spending. Yesterday, this was revised up by €3.3bn, meaning the actual 2025 increase will be more than double the original plan.

Government has today published the updated National Development Plan, with unprecedented levels of investment, to secure Ireland's future, unlock housing, upgrade water and energy infrastructure, deliver more roads, and provide better public transport.

Listen to our trade expert @StreckerNM commenting on the latest round of proposed tariffs by the U.S. on the @PatKennyNT show this morning: https://t.co/FU7aKDNwFY . .

1/4 Today’s fiscal monitor shows underlying tax revenue growing, strong corporation tax receipts, and a fast pace of spending growth that is likely to see large overruns again this year.

The Summer 25 issue of the ESR is now out. It includes great papers around nudging in the workplace, major choices in Higher Ed, incumbent electoral success as well as a tribute to the late Chris Whelan. Please share widely @IrishEconAssoc @ISWEconomics https://t.co/vJEUBtt84H
