The Budget is three weeks away and, as the Deputy will appreciate, it would be inappropriate for me to comment on what may or may not be included in its provisions at this time.

However, the Deputy can take it that, as would apply each year in putting together the Budget elements in conjunction with the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, regard will be had to all relevant factors and policy priorities.
