Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Pre-Budget Engagement (Resumed): Irish Fiscal Advisory Council and Nevin Economic Research Institute

Dr. Tom McDonnell:

I thank the Deputy. There are a lot of very good ideas in that. On his final point, he talked about five-year plans and all of that. That is how we should do budgets. We should have rolling five-year budgets that are always looking ahead. In many ways, we should take the drama out of budgets and make them boring ongoing discussions and evolving things that are happening over time.
