Economy grew strongly before Covid-19; unemployment peaked in April as workers begin to return
U rate uncertain**; more returned to work in June Robust growth in run up to lockdown
Source: CSO * Underlying series is modified final domestic demand (excludes inventories) ** Whether those on government income supports are unemployed is statistically debatable. Some will have left the labour force, others are just temporarily furloughed. August’s Q2 labour force survey will illuminate.

Ireland used 2014-19 growth to create fiscal room and improve debt sustainability
Improved debt position allows for fiscal policy to act Debt-to-GNI* (99% 2019f, from 166% peak) Debt-to-GG Revenue (233% 2019, from 353%) Average interest rate (2.2% 2019, from 5.1%) Debt-to-GDP^ (59% 2019, from 120%) Debt fell to 99% of national income but will reverse Six years of primary surplus; run to end in 2020
^ due to GDP distortions, Debt to GDP is not representative for Ireland, we suggest using other measures listed.

Labour market highlights the stark Covid-19 impact but uncertainty about exact numbers as of now
True unemployment rate is uncertain: Covid- 19 adjusted rate 22.5%* down from 28.2% 820K getting income supports - unclear how many would be considered unemployed
Large caveat: CSO has urged caution
force number is unknown – the labour force survey for Q2 will be key

questions about what constitutes being employed and whether those losing jobs will leave the labour

€4.8bn bn for income support measures (extended to August – cost will increase):
1.
A temporary wage subsidy scheme (TWSS) has been introduced which pays 70-85% of an employee’s income up to €410p/w. This equates to any salary below €38,000.
Subsidy is for businesses with >20% reduction in turnover and keeps employee on the books. Most furloughed salaries are below €38,000; average payment close to €350 p/w more likely.
2.
The pandemic unemployment payment (PUP) for employees (and self-employed) has been amended to €200 or €350 p/w depending on previous wage level. A sick leave payment for actual Covid-19 diagnosis or self isolation is available and is €350 p/w. €2bn bn for increased health spending to combat Covid-19. €6.5bn bn for business supports: Some of these supports need to be legislated for in coming weeks.
1.
A €10,000 restart grant for micro and small businesses;
2.
A three month commercial rates waiver for impacted businesses;
3.
A €2 billion Pandemic Stabilisation and Recovery Fund within the Ireland Strategic Investment Fund (ISIF), which will make capital available to medium and large enterprises on commercial terms;
4.
A €2 billion COVID-19 Credit Guarantee Scheme to support lending to SMEs;
5.
The ‘warehousing’ of tax liabilities for a period of twelve months Other measures enacted include support for bank borrowers, reducing the CBI’s Countercyclical Capital Buffer, deferrals on tax payments including VAT & stamp duty, temporary rent freezes and temporary ban on evictions.
