Tanaiste Micheal Martin says Apple windfall tax money could 'future proof' housing and water supply
Briefly

Ireland's recent €14 billion back tax settlement with Apple could fund crucial infrastructural developments, particularly in housing, as the government aims to meet growing demands.
Minister Jack Chambers noted that the substantial corporation tax revenue, including the Apple payment, illustrates the ongoing growth in Ireland's economic landscape, labelled as 'multiple mini-apples'.
Mr. Martin emphasized that ring-fencing the Apple funds for housing is essential to future-proof the investment, indicating young people's urgent need for adequate housing.
The Tánaiste pointed out the increasing state housing targets, from 20,000 to 60,000 units annually, stressing the need for urgent action to tackle the housing crisis.
