This will bring the price of cigarettes in the most popular price category to €10. In addition, a pouch of roll-your-own tobacco will increase by a further 20 cent per 25g pack.

Collectively, the revenue-raising measures in the budget will contribute over €167 million to the Exchequer in the coming year.
