OECD Ireland Report: Pension age at 65 and unchecked healthcare will add to debt levels

Spending on health and continuing to fund the State pension age at 65 will add significant amounts to Ireland’s debt, the OECD has said.

In a major report, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development also said it wants to maintain the property tax and for it be assessed at regular intervals and also seeks further carbon hikes for Ireland to hit its obligations to reduce climate-warming emissions.
