Fine Gael 'think-in' getting underway in Westmeath

Fine Gael is gathering for its parliamentary party 'think in' which is taking place in Mullingar today (Monday) and tomorrow.

The party said Budget 2026, housing, infrastructure, in particular health infrastructure, children's disability services and special education would be among the topics up for discussion.

Fine Gael said Tánaiste Simon Harris would tell colleagues: "This is the first budget of the new government and it must show our intent, it must show our values; protecting our economy, protecting jobs, building homes and infrastructure, delivering for working families and helping our carers, disabled people, older people and those most in need."
