The Well-being Framework and the analysis of the accompanying dashboard features at key points in the Budget process annually. This includes at the National Economic Dialogue, in the Summer Economic Statement and in Budget Day documentation. This supplements existing work to provide an additional holistic understanding of quality of life issues into the discussions and publications which surround Budget decision-making.
For example for Budget 2024 this included:
The Department of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery & Reform has published a working paper outlining how a well-being perspective can be developed within the context of the budgetary process, and, in particular, support the development of a cross-governmental description of resource allocation decisions as a complement to the existing approach to presenting such information.
For Budget 2024, the Department published two papers:
1. Budget 2024 – Enhancing the Well-being of People Living in Ireland which provides a cross-governmental look at selected measures announced in Budget 2024, and;
2. Budget 2024 – Revised Estimates Volume 2024 – Enhancing the Well-being of People Living in Ireland Working Paper No.5l which provides a high-level, cross-governmental description of the total allocation of resources as presented in the Revised Estimates Volume for Public Services 2024.
These papers will help discussions on how a well-being perspective might impact and inform the allocation of resources.
