Is October Too Soon To Phase Out Pandemic Welfare Supports?

At a parliamentary party meeting last night, Tánaiste Leo Varadkar said the Government will next week outline plans to phase out pandemic welfare supports from October onwards. Is this the right time to wind it down or should it have been gone a long time ago?  To discuss this we were joined this morning by  Sinn Féin spokesperson on Public Expenditure and Reform, Mairead Farrell TD  and public affairs consultant, Sunday Times columnist and former Senior Political Adviser, Gerard Howlin.   Listen and subscribe to Newstalk Breakfast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.     Download, listen and subscribe on the Newstalk App.    You can also listen to Newstalk live on newstalk.com or on Alexa, by adding the Newstalk skill and asking: 'Alexa, play Newstalk'.
