Taxing Times: The Future of Government Revenue

19 February 2026

This is the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council’s tenth annual conference on long-term public finance issues.

This year’s conference is on the theme of government revenue. This includes risks to Ireland’s corporation tax, and the impacts of ageing and digitisation on government revenue. We will also get an international perspective with insights on wealth taxes and which forms of taxation are best or worst when considering their impact on economic activity.

The conference will be on Thursday 19th February (9am to 1pm). It will be at the Royal Irish Academy, Dawson Street, Dublin 2, D02 HH58.

You can register to attend here. Please register in advance as places are limited.
