In the event of No Deal, €650 million is to be made available to support the Agriculture, Enterprise and Tourism sectors and to assist the most affected citizens and regions.
Of this, €220 million will be deployed immediately in the event of a No Deal.
From this, €110 million for enterprises has been identified for the first wave of funding for targeted new interventions to help vulnerable but viable firms adjust to a No Deal Brexit….
More as we get it it.
Update:
€2.5bn will be allocated to the Housing Programme in 2020, according to Minister Donohoe. A further €20m will go to homeless services

Is it true the single biggest winner from all of this Brexit moolah is the enterprise where Simon Coveney’s brother is the boss, Greencore?
you need to start your own small, independent bookmakers then.
Why is the government giving tax payer money to private business because of brexit ?
Because negative tax. Didn’t you hear? Its all the rage in the west right now!
“€2.5bn will be allocated to the Housing Programme in 2020” We’ll see!
They already want to restrict the “help to buy scheme”, which is a load of b0ll1x anyway because it’s only for buying new builds.
50 cent increase on the winter fuel allowance? No, more likely a 25 cent extra tax on a packet of fags. Big grants for 5-star new hotels and a few bob more to build public authority housing. I’m not getting excited.
Yes; but don’t you just want to pinch Paschal’s little cheeks.
if the gov. could privatise climate action they would. slapping a tax on carbon does literally nothing other than generate more money for the gov. Does nothing to save the environment. Typical short-sightedness from an utterly useless party.
