The Summer Economic Statement (SES) is a key element of the reformed budgetary process which complements the Stability Programme Update. While the macroeconomic outlook will be as set out in the Stability Programme Update, the SES will provide an updated assessment of the fiscal space available for 2018. It will also outline the key elements of the Government’s economic strategy.
The SES is expected to be published in mid-July.
