The average worker will be at least €1,000 better off following income tax reductions and cost-of-living payments in Budget 2025, the finance minister has said.

Jack Chambers said there will be a particular focus on low- and middle-income earners in the upcoming budget with energy credits and reductions in USC to be key to the plans.
