  Drogheda & District Chamber 2 returns Budgetary matters

  • For many businesses, particularly SMEs, balancing annual budgets remains a significant challenge. While the €9.4bn support package offers meaningful assistance, cost pressures persist. A reduction in hospitality VAT from 13.5% to 9% would provide a major boost to the sector. However, rising costs, including increases in the minimum wage, auto-enrolment pensions and other expenses, mean a careful balance is required to protect this vital industry.
  • Business confidence depends on certainty in planning, electricity, water and road infrastructure. Where certainty exists, investment follows, supporting both major employers and small businesses. Drogheda is well suited as a pilot location to European standards for infrastructure delivery around the Northern Cross Route. Completion of this route will unlock housing beyond the 7,500 homes envisaged and enable employment growth, allowing people to live and work locally.
