At the half-year point, the economic outlook is more positive as normality begins to return to everyday life. After an initial slow start, Ireland’s vaccine rollout has gained momentum with over four million vaccines administered and 50% of the adult population now fully vaccinated.

Construction sites are now fully operational, retail and hospitality are now open, with social distancing restrictions. A resumption of international travel within the European Union is set to begin on 19 July for Irish residents.
