Local authority financing

Summary

Sherlock asks whether the plan will address local authorities’ lack of funding. The Taoiseach says their financing will be an important part of the plan’s treatment of public finances.

Will the plan include some proper policy for the financing of local authorities who are starved for finance at present and cannot provide the services which they have a statutory obligation to provide?

Comment on this

Yes, the financing of local authorities will be a very important element of the plan as part of the overall ordering of the public finances.
