The following is a list of pre-Budget submissions received by the Department of Finance in advance of Budget 2025.
They come from a range of entities, including companies, sectoral representative organisations, trade unions, charities and advocacy groups. It is hoped that the publication of these pre-Budget submissions will increase transparency around the pre-Budget process and allow an insight into the many demands made of the Minister for Finance in the run-up to the Budget each year.
The publication of these submissions may also be of interest to people who wish to make a submission in advance of this year’s Budget.
Submissions were also received from individuals, often outlining their particular circumstances and requesting the Minister to take a particular course of action to support and assist them. The Department is not publishing these submissions so as to avoid the release of personal information which may identify people involved. 105 pre-Budget submissions are being published in respect of Budget 2025.
All submissions received are considered by the Minister and his officials in the context of the annual Budget.
