The estimated yield from non-indexation for Budget 2020, will not be finalised until the Office of the Revenue Commissioners has completed and published its Pre-Budget 2020 Income Tax Ready Reckoner, which is expected to be published in Quarter 3 2019. This sets out the cost to the Exchequer of indexing various income tax components by 1%. 

In addition, the updated Budget 2020 macro-economic drivers used in preparing these calculations will need to be endorsed by the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council in early October 2019.
