The development of the National Economic Plan is well advanced, however, finalisation has been deferred given the short-term focus on economic supports for businesses and workers affected by the reintroduction of public health restrictions due to Covid-19.
The Plan is intended to be a high-level framework setting out the Government’s priorities and policy objectives for a sustainable and inclusive recovery. Drawing on the Programme for Government it will signal pathways and associated deliverables beyond the crisis given accelerating changes in the global and domestic landscape.
The Plan will be built on five broad pillars: sustainable public finances, strategic investment, making enterprises and sectors more resilient, building an inclusive and regionally balanced recovery, and future proofing our environment and economy.
