Funds will also help forestry minister Michael Healy-Rae to fund the Forestry Windblow Reconstruction Scheme, which relates to damage caused by Storms Darragh and Éowyn.

An additional €160m is to be spread over 2026-2030, and will be directed towards TAMS for forestry, fishery, harbour centres, and seafood development.

This comes after the publication of a revised National Development Plan (NDP), which has been welcomed by minister for agriculture Martin Heydon.
