Wexford GAA reveals new sponsor for underage competitions
For the last 21 years OmniPro has provided a range of consulting, training and support services for Irish accounting firms and their SME clients. OmniPro provide tax, company law, corporate finance, recruitment, technical support and profitability advisory to firms and their clients throughout Ireland. Based in Ferns, its CEO is Des O'Neill, whose family has a long-standing involvement in the GAA at all levels. Des said: 'I see every week during the playing season the immense effort put in by players and their coaches alike, and how much taking part in these championships means to them' 'There's nothing quite like watching young hurlers and footballers playing with heart and determination, and all the while building teamwork, discipline, and character. It reminds us of why we love the games in the first place. I am delighted to be able to contribute to their journey. 'The children of today are our future. They are the foundation on which the GAA is built,' he added. Cathaoirleach of Wexford GAA, John Kenny, has thanked Des and OmniPro for their support. 'This contribution is an investment in young people, their development, and their dreams,' he said.

We are very grateful for OmniPro support and how it enables us to continue to do this.' John added his thanks to People Newspapers and the Irish Independent for their previous sponsorship of the competitions, and their ongoing great coverage of Gaelic games at all levels in the county. 'We are lucky to enjoy such a good relationship with the local media and I thank them sincerely for all the space they afford for match reports and other Gaelic games news each week,' he said. This year's OmniPro Under-14 Championships are already under way, while the Under-16 and Minor Championships are to commence in the coming weeks, following the conclusion of State Exams.

The government is considering a scrappage scheme for electric cars
TRANSPORT MINISTER DARRAGH O'Brien has conceded that the government won't hit a target to get one million electric vehicles on the road by 2030. The target was first set in 2019, but since then it has been revised downward and essentially dropped. Former Minister for Transport Eamon Ryan doubled down last year on the ambitious target and said it was still possible to get 945,000 EVs on Irish roads by 2030, but acknowledged it was 'challenging'. However, in an interview with The Journal, O'Brien has confirmed the target will not be met. 'We won't hit one million cars,' he said. 'I think the projections are still significant [and we are] probably projecting 600,000 by the end of the decade,' added O'Brien. Advertisement While EV registrations had been climbing in recent years, there was a fall-off last year. However the minister said signs in 2025 have been positive, with an increase in new registrations in the first quarter of this year. So far this year, 12,392 new electric cars have been registered, representing a 23.3% increase on the year to date in 2024, when 10,052 electric cars were registered. EV grants scheme While the minister said the current grant scheme in place for drivers to purchase an EV is 'good', he wants to 'rework' the grants scheme to make it more attractive, with the department also looking at rolling out the country's first ever EV scrappage scheme. Currently, financial supports to encourage drivers to switch to electric include grants of of up to €3,500, along with a home charger purchase grant of up to €300. There is also VRT relief of up to €5,000 for the purchase of electric cars, a Benefit-in-Kind (BIK) tax relief for electric vehicles and chargers, as well a lower rate of annual motor tax. O'Brien said he met with stakeholders from the sector recently, and they were looking for new measures that might provide certainty over a five-year period. The minister confirmed that he is exploring the potential around establishing a scrappage scheme for electric vehicles, which has never existed before in Ireland. 'I am looking at that right now. I've asked the team to work on it,' said O'Brien.

'I am looking at measures. I've asked the team to look at how we could maybe rework the grants – not necessarily increase the levels, but look at middle income families, look at rural areas as well,' he added. The BIK regime is also being looked at as one area where improvements can be made, the minister confirmed. Currently, an employee with an electric company vehicle will have an overall BIK relief of €45,000 in 2025 which comprises the €35,000 electric vehicle specific relief plus the additional temporary universal relief of €10,000. 'I'm trying to bring forward measures I can control myself. I think that the BIK, obviously, [the] Department of Finance has been very helpful here. I'd like to see that extended further and give that certainty to the sector. People are responding to it,' he said. He said there is a need to improve the charging infrastructure across the country, which he said has improved. Earlier this month the Department of Transport confirmed that 175 new fast recharging points are due to open at 53 locations in the coming months. The chargers are located along national roads with a view to improve access to chargers during long journeys. Readers like you are keeping these stories free for everyone...

One in five Irish CFOs expect revenues to fall
Optimism levels among Ireland's CFOs have weakened significantly over the past year. Deloitte's latest CFO survey reports just 28% of Irish respondents say they are more optimistic about their company's financial prospects than three months ago. That figure is down from 60% in spring 2024, and only a modest recovery from the 19% recorded in autumn 2024. Based on responses from 1,542 chief financial officers across 14 European countries, the survey also reports 60% of CFOs now report operating in a high-uncertainty environment, up from 53% in spring 2024. The Netherlands, Portugal and Ireland have the highest number of CFOs saying they are less optimistic, while Germany had the highest number of CFOs feeling more optimistic (45%). In Ireland, one in five CFOs (22%) expect their revenue to fall, while 45% say they expect to see their revenue increasing over the next 12 months, slightly lower than the European average of 52%. Tom Hynes, Deloitte Ireland partner, says finance leaders are now facing a markedly more volatile global landscape: 'Geopolitics is clearly weighing on CFO sentiment. The changes to global trading structures now mean there is enhanced geopolitical shifts, and the vast majority of CFOs in Ireland now expect tariffs and global tensions to directly affect their operations," he said.
