Social Justice Ireland examines the fairness of seven different options for tax changes in their new publication released on Wednesday 4th of October. The new Irish Budget will be announced next Tuesday, 10th October, and the Social Justice Ireland analysis shows that much of what is being proposed is unfair and unjust. Fairer options are identified in the publication referred.
On the 11th of October, a Budget Analysis Seminar will take place, over which Social Justice Ireland will present a full Budget 2018 Analysis and Response, at 11am in Buswells Hotel. The seminar briefing will get behind the numbers and examine the impact of the choices Government makes in a variety of areas including taxation, social welfare, health, ODA and education. The analysis will identify who gains and who loses as a result of Budget 2018. There will also be an opportunity for questions and discussion. The event is free but pre-registrations are compulsory (registers here).
