#Budget2013

Nat O'Connor05/12/2012

Nat O'Connor: As the new era of budget transparency dawns (or should that be New Era?), the Government's official information service (MerrionStreet.ie) will be tweeting budget soundbites to the nation, via hashtag #Budget2013

For more conventional information, official documents will be made available on the Government's Budget website budget.gov.ie as the day progresses.
