I propose to take Questions Nos. 326, 333, 334, 335, 336 and 337 together.
The Department of Finance opened its pre-budget costings service with effect from 3 July 2023. The procedures for availing of this service are set out in a letter dated 3 July 2023 from the Secretary General of the Department to all recognised parties and technical groups in Dáil Éireann. To ensure efficiency and fairness all costing requests should be made in this manner, via the standard request format template, instead of the Parliamentary Question system at this time.
