479. Deputy Paul Murphy asked the Minister for Finance if he is aware of the IACP Pre-Budget Submission 2024; if he will ensure that their main demands as per (details supplied) are included in the upcoming Budget; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [38835/23]
View answerAs Minister for Finance, I receive a large number of pre-budget submissions on a wide range of issues. All submissions are acknowledged by my Department on receipt.
I can confirm that the pre-Budget submission to which the Deputy refers was received on Wednesday 30 August 2023 and acknowledged on the same date.
The contents will be considered in the context of the forthcoming Budget, however, as the Deputy will be aware, it is a long-standing practice of the Minister for Finance not to comment in advance of the Budget on any matters that might be the subject of Budget decisions.
