The Department of Finance and Department of Public Expenditure and Reform hosted the National Economic Dialogue on the 28 and 29 June 2017 in Dublin Castle. The Dialogue was an opportunity to consider how to make best use of the available resources in the interests of all citizens. The aim was to foster discussion on how best to sustain and strengthen the recovery in the interests of all while taking account of the many competing economic and social priorities within the limited fiscal space. The Dialogue was not intended to produce specific budget proposals or recommendations. The overarching theme of the Dialogue was “Sustainable and inclusive growth in the context of national and global challenges.” Representatives of community, voluntary and environmental groups, business, unions, research institutes, the academic community and the media were invited. All members of the Select Committee on Budgetary Oversight were also invited to attend and to participate.
