Ireland would run an €11 billion deficit in 2026 without excess corporation tax, according to the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council. The independent watchdog found that most corporation tax receipts are being spent rather than saved, with only €1 out of every €6 collected set aside. Corporation tax has surged from €7 billion in 2016 to an estimated €34 billion this year, with foreign-owned multinationals paying €28.8 billion of the €32.9 billion total in 2025. The council warned that such receipts are volatile and not a reliable source for permanent spending, and noted that borrowing to meet fund requirements would depart from the original purpose of saving risky tax revenues.
