Abstract:
This Article outlines and assesses changes to the tax and welfare system
announced as part of Budget 2022. It first looks at the main taxation measures
announced before turning to employment, education and social welfare supports.
It then considers the effect of the package of measures as a whole on the incomes
of households using representative survey data from the Survey of Incomes and
Living Conditions run on SWITCH – the ESRI’s tax and benefit microsimulation
model – and ITSim – an indirect tax microsimulation model developed jointly by
the ESRI and the Department of Finance. The Article concludes with some brief
reflections on inflation forecasts and the policy-making process.
