I would like to make a request for records under the Freedom of Information Act 2014. I’m addressing it to both the departments of public expenditure and finance as I am unsure which department has ultimate responsibility. I am seeking records related to preparations for the EU’s post-2027 multi-annual financial framework (MFF) and Ireland’s position on it. More specifically, I would like to obtain minutes of meetings, briefings, cabinet papers or correspondence sent to or sent by the minister and/or department of public expenditure and the minister and/or department of finance (as appropriate) on the MFF since the formation of the new government on 23 January 2025 to the present day, 7 May 2025.
