Irish minister announces no second-tier child benefit in 2026 budget, delaying plan to combat child poverty.
Irish Social Protection Minister Dara Calleary announced that a second-tier child benefit will not be included in the upcoming Budget 2026, despite earlier suggestions by Taoiseach Micheál Martin.
The plan, aimed at reducing child poverty, would cost about €772 million annually and could lift tens of thousands of children out of poverty.
While the scheme's details are being finalized, it's expected to be introduced by Budget 2027.
The move comes amid financial considerations and mixed public reactions.
