5:10 pm
David Cullinane (Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
The ESRI stated that the most recent two budgets and decisions made therein were the most unequal of the past six budgets and have resulted in people at the bottom end of the scale, including on those on low pay and in receipt of social welfare payments, being disproportionately affected. The Government is not properly poverty proofing decisions which it is making. I propose to press the amendment.
