Budget 2021: How the day will unfold

From 8.30pm tomorrow TDs will vote on any financial measures that must pass by midnight.

Today will be a long day for all involved in Irish politics with what looks likely to be over 17 hours of meetings, speeches and press conferences for the Government and opposition parties alike. 

There will be blanket media coverage throughout the day, with charities, NGOs and industrial bodies all readily available to comment on the Government's offering. The Dáil is being held in Dublin's Convention Centre in order to ensure Covid-19 safety guidelines are being followed and will see TDs move back and forth across the Liffey throughout the day to attend speeches and votes and back to Leinster House for traditional press conferences on the plinth or at the government press centre.
