Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Ex-ante Scrutiny of Budget 2018: Irish Business and Employers Confederation

4:00 pm

Mr. Fergal O'Brien:

There are measures the Government can take from a public investment perspective. Much of our investment agenda here is around making better use of some of our resources, achieving better housing utilisation and ensuring better density in urban areas, which we have identified in the submission. More substantively, in terms of the work we have done for the national planning framework, we have some very extensive policies in terms of our sustainability agenda. We have not identified in this budget specific fiscal measures to support environmental investment.
