There are indications that weekly welfare payments could increase by more than the €12 previously flagged.
Government sources have indicated that a rise of at least €12 is certain, but that figure could be bumped up by the three party leaders.
It is also expected that there will be a double child benefit payment between now and Christmas.
This measure has been strongly supported by Minister for Social Protection Heather Humphreys.
Other once-off payments are also expected before the end of the year.
The long-promised pay-related benefit scheme for people becoming unemployed will make it into this year's budget announcement.
Mortgage Interest Relief was also being discussed at yesterday evening's meeting.
This is being tabled by Minister for Finance Michael McGrath and will mostly come from through the tax system and not through Social Protection, as previously predicted.
There was a further meeting yesterday between Minister for Children and Integration Roderic O'Gorman and Minister for Public Expenditure Paschal Donohoe to sign off on his department's allocation including a childcare package.
However no figures have emerged yet.
Student grants are likely to go up by over €300 this academic year.
Postgraduate students will also see a hike in their grants from zero to a maximum of €2,300.
It is also understood that Minister for Higher Education Simon Harris is pushing for another €1,000 cut in college fees, as was delivered last year.
Meanwhile, Tánaiste and Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin has confirmed the cost-of-living package in Budget 2024 will be less than the €4.1bn in one-off measures outlined in budget 2023.
Speaking to reporters this evening, Mr Martin said while cost-of-living support is key to next year's budget, it "probably won't be at the same level as last year".
"That's part of the reason for today's meeting. I mean, there are still a number of issues from public expenditure to be resolved, so there are challenging issues yet to be resolved before the budget," he said.
"We are conscious that people have been under a lot of pressure and we’re aiming to try and help people and also some development on key areas," he added.
