The National Youth Council of Ireland recently presented their Pre-Budget Submission for Budget 2025 at the National Youth Organisations meeting on June 24th which I attended. I note the priorities set out in that submission.

Budget 2025 will be considered by Government during the annual Estimates process which is currently taking place. As this process has yet to be completed, the Deputy will appreciate that it would not be appropriate for me to comment further at this stage.
