311. Deputy Carol Nolan asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Finance in view of the significant reduction in birth rates both domestically and internationally, the analysis his Department has conducted with respect to reforming the tax system to incentivise or support an increasing in total fertility rates here; if he is aware of reports that in 2010, Hungary ranked last among EU member states in terms of total fertility rate, but according to Eurostat data from 2023, Hungary has risen to third place and that this significant progress is largely thanks to the targeted government family support policies implemented over the past fifteen years, the result of which is that since 2010, 200,000 more children have been born than would have been expected based on previous demographic trends; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
