Abstract

Unprecedented growth of older population, globally and in Ireland, particularly population aged 65+ is projected to increase: from 637,500 in 2016 to 1.4 million by 2046, driven by higher life expectancy (CSO, 2013). One dominant theme: rising ‘Old Age Dependency’ ratios and resulting pressure for public finances.
