Donohoe says funding to be above €2.8bn Budget package if no-deal Brexit

Mr Donohoe was speaking in the Dáil during finance questions as the Economic and Social Research Institute said the Government should consider a supplementary budget in the New Year in response to Brexit.

Mr McGrath said there may be a growing view in political circles that Brexit may not come to a head in October the reality is they are just five weeks from a potential cliff edge. Earlier this month, the Cabinet had been warned that there would be no extra funding and that the figures allowed for a Budget-day package of €2.8 billion, of which €2.1 billion has already been committed. Mr Donohoe confirmed these were the figures as he prepared the budget for a no-deal Brexit.
