No-deal Brexit could be costly for Ireland putting key projects in jeopardy

A no-deal Brexit could impact the public finances so much this year that key projects will be jeopardised, Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe has warned his ministerial colleagues.

Speaking as British Prime Minister Theresa May narrowly survived a no-confidence motion in the House of Commons, by 325 votes to 306, Mr Donohoe revealed he has ordered an urgent review of the likely impact of a ‘no-deal’ on the Irish economy in 2019.
