Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Post-Budget Analysis: Irish Fiscal Advisory Council

Mr. Sebastian Barnes:

One big lesson we learned from the crisis is that going into it with the public finances in good shape was much better than the alternative and gave us the margin to provide income supports and so on. In our area of expertise as fiscal experts, that is an important lesson to draw. Fortunately, we got that one right.
