Commitment

Increase the State pension to at least €350 per week

What this means

  • Fianna Fail is a political party that made this promise in its 2024 general election manifesto, published in November 2024.[source]
  • The commitment is to raise the State pension to at least 350 euro per week, which would benefit older people who rely on it as their main income.[source]
  • The stated aim is to ensure a better quality of life in older age, making this a social protection promise targeting pensioners.[source]
  • This is currently a promise only, with no confirmed delivery date, so voters and watchdogs should track whether it is acted on in government.[source]
