There may be less room for tax cuts for workers in the Budget than in recent years, but costs for small businesses will be addressed, the Tánaiste has said.
Speaking at the National Ploughing Championships, Simon Harris also said there will be supports for carers and that the lower tax rate for energy will stay in place.
