Budget 2023 must assist in creating an equal Ireland
Government must do the right thing and target resources towards people on low and fixed incomes says charity
The Society of St Vincent de Paul (SVP) is seeking a commitment from Government that the forthcoming budget will assist in creating an equal Ireland.
In its newly launched Pre-Budget Submission “The Cost of Surviving”, the Society has set out a series of proposals which it believes must be addressed to help struggling families and the level of poverty in Ireland.
SVP National President Rose McGowan said, “As a country we believe in showing compassion towards others and helping and protecting each other from harm. Yet, right now, too many live in poverty and many more risk falling into the trap. We all share a moral responsibility to ensure that everyone in our country has a decent standard of living.”
