'People cannot wait': Sinn Féin calls for 'emergency budget' immediately

Sinn Fein's Pearse Doherty: 'Act now. Bring forward an emergency budget and give people the relief they desperately need.'

Sinn Féin’s finance spokesperson Pearse Doherty has called on the Government to introduce an “emergency budget” with tax cuts, a social welfare package, and energy credits.

In his address to the Sinn Féin Ard Fheis, Mr Doherty accused the Government of ignoring people as the cost-of-living crisis spirals. The Sinn Féin Ard Fheis started in Belfast on Friday evening and will continue throughout Saturday.
