What would you like to see in Budget 2024? We want to hear your stories
The Budget is set to be unveiled next week.
BUDGET 2024 IS due to be announced next week, with much speculation as to what it will entail.
The usual kite-flying has been happening in recent weeks, with an increase in social welfare payments such as the pension and greater support for parents paying for childcare among the measures expected.
A return of the electricity credit, aimed at helping people keep up with bills amid surging costs, is also likely.
Ahead of the official announcement on 10 October, we want to hear from readers:
- What measure would you like to see in the Budget?
- Do you feel better or worse off than a year ago?
