The government's due to publish its third annual report today.
It'll give an update on the progress it's made in the third year of the Fine Gael and Labour coalition.
It's expected to declare that the exit from the bailout is giving Ireland the right to determine its own financial affairs.
The message today will be of a new beginning in the first year after the Troika's departure.
Since the last annual report the number of people in employment has risen by over 60,000, though net emigration has risen by the same amount and the budget deficit has been cut by over a fifth.
But the government will need to sound a note of caution and temper the expectations ahead of the local elections in May.
They'll have to underline that the economy is still fragile and that any suggestions of easing the tax burden may have to wait until after the next Budget at the very least.
