Good news for social welfare recipients as welfare hikes look likely, says Varadkar




The Tanaiste Leo Varadkar will announce during the Fine Gael think-in that many welfare increases are justified and promises that the highest tax rate will not be increased to pay off the Covid debt, reports the Mirror.

In the next month’s budget, pension and social benefits will be increased and there will be no tax increases to pay off our billion euro Covid debt, Leo Varadkar is expected to announce.

Fine Gael and Tánaiste Chairman Varadkar will use the party’s deliberations on the Monday before the Dáil to bring the good news to pensioners, workers and welfare recipients.
