Annual Progress Report 2026
The Annual Progress Report (APR) is an EU legal requirement and is a key part of the reformed European fiscal architecture. The main purpose of the APR is for Member States to report on ex post expenditure growth outcomes versus planned expenditure in the previous year, as well as to provide updates to the reforms and investments set out in their Medium Term Structural-Fiscal Plans (MTP).
This is Ireland’s second APR and is prepared in line with guidelines prepared by the European Commission. The APR also incorporates the Department’s spring forecasts for the main economic and fiscal variables for the period 2026-2030.
In line with legal requirements, the macroeconomic forecasts produced by the Department of Finance were independently endorsed by the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council on 25th March 2026.
