I propose to take Questions Nos. 309 and 310 together.

As the Deputy will be aware, there are a number of key staging posts throughout the year leading up to Budget Day.

The next stage in the cycle is the Summer Economic Statement, which sets outs the budgetary parameters. This will be published next month. The date on which Budget 2026 will be presented to the Oireachtas will be also be announced at that time.
