Darragh O'Brien: Níl mé cinnte faoi sin. Like the four budgets before it, this year's budget is unprecedented. It provides more than €6 billion in capital to help us to deliver social and affordable homes for our people. It is the most that any Government has ever invested in housing. It is made up of more than €3.1 billion in Exchequer funding, an additional €1.25 billion...

Neale Richmond: Respectfully, the Deputy can interject thereafter. We have a situation now where we set two funds up recently that will enable us to plan for the future. More than €15 billion will be invested in those funds to ensure that when we need that support, or when the economic tides change globally or indeed domestically, that we have those funds not only to dip into but also to invest and...

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: Gabhaim buíochas. Is buiséad agus cáinaisnéis é seo a léiríonn easpa físe, nach bhfuil uaillmhianach agus, i ndáiríre, nach bhfuil aon chrot air. Tá sé gan tuairim nua mhór agus gan phlean mór agus nach mbeidh aon rian de nó tionchar aige go fadtéarmach. Budget 2025 has shown us that this Government is out of...

Joe O'Brien: I take this opportunity today to emphasise the importance of community work in all its various forms across the country. We invest in built infrastructure and in public services but infrastructure and public services do not, in and of themselves, create communities. The glue that pulls it all together is very often our community organisations and workers and, invariably, our volunteers. ...

Neale Richmond: This is a good budget for every household in the country and for every individual. As a Minister of State in the Department of Finance, it gives me great pleasure to rise to commend this budget for the House but also to speak to the conditions that have allowed us to deliver a good budget. The conditions of our economy do not happen by accident. They are not some fluke, as some people...

Heather Humphreys: As Minister for Social Protection, I am conscious that while inflation is falling, the cost of living continues to impact families and households across the country. When you go to the supermarket, you might have the same groceries in your basket, but the bill is a lot higher at the checkout. This budget is about giving people a bit of extra help and putting money back in their pockets. It...

Catherine Connolly: I welcome a second opportunity to make a contribution on the budget. I also refer to the fact that we have had a chance to reflect on it. With the size of the budget and the money involved we will need a lot more time. Again, to quote Social Justice Ireland, this budget will leave a "regressive legacy". It welcomes the good things, as do I, but overall it points out that a couple with...

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Similarly, that comment about robbing the State is something the Deputy should consider withdrawing.
