The Cabinet will be asked to approve the drafting of new laws that will give effect to changes to the way judicial reviews are utilised.
It comes after much concern has been expressed into how the process is being used to delay or stop projects that are in the public interest from going ahead.
The proposed changes will put a public interest of common good test at the centre of the process.
The ability of citizens to seek a remedy in court if they suffer harm or prejudice will still exist but only where the remedy is not contrary to the public interest.
Speaking about the changes, Minister for Justice Jim O'Callaghan said challenges currently facing the State "can no longer delay the reform of the judicial review system".
"I recognise that citizens have the right to challenge what they perceive as unlawful decisions of public bodies, as a fundamental part of the checks and balances of a liberal democracy.
"This right must be protected - but in a balanced manner which also protects the common good," Minister O’Callaghan added.
The changes will be contained in the Civil Reform Bill 2025 which will also propose increasing the awards ceilings for the District and Circuit courts for the first time since 2013.
The maximum award in the District Court will rise to €20,000 from €15,000, while the award ceiling in the Circuit Court will rise to €100,000 from €75,000, or from €60,000 in a personal injury case.
It is hoped the changes will allow more cases to be heard in lower courts where payment of compensation is at issue.
Cabinet to discuss housing equity injection
The Cabinet will also hear a proposal from Tánaiste and Minister for Finance Simon Harris for a €600 million equity injection into the housing market, which will assist small builders with financing for projects.
The Ireland Strategic Investment Fund (ISIF) will assist builders with the supply of homes with €400m of equity and the key banks will provide another €200m.
The entire package will mean the ISIF, which invests in housing on behalf of the State, could deliver up to 5,000 homes across the country in the coming years.
Mr Harris will also seek Cabinet approval for the Medium-Term Fiscal Framework which will lay out broad parameters for government spending and taxation over the next five years.
Last month, the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council criticised the fact that the fiscal framework had not been published saying the country was "flying blind" without it.
Meanwhile, Minister for Housing James Browne will seek approval of the extension of the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant to 2030 and sanction for the payment of up to 20,000 grants.
The scheme aims to convert vacant houses of buildings into permanent homes or rental properties with grants to the sum of €50,000.
Minister Browne will also update colleagues on the introduction of 'Vacant Above the Shop Grants' with funding of up to €140,000 available to bring space "above the shop" into residential use.
The Cabinet will also hear proposals from Minister of Agriculture Martin Heydon to strengthen the powers of the agri-food regulator to compel companies to share data on pricing, supply chains and salaries.
The development comes after companies failed to cooperate with the regulator on a voluntary basis.
Minister for Further and Higher Education James Lawless will inform the Cabinet of a plan to introduce a new grade of full professor in technological universities.
The new positions will be introduced in two phases with 25 professors being filled in each phase.
The Cabinet will also hear of plans to allow for electricity wires to be owned by private developers in limited circumstances.
The proposals from Minister for Climate, Energy and the Environment Darragh O'Brien will change the existing situation where only ESB Networks are allowed to own power lines.
It is envisioned that the change will allow private developers to connect single electricity users or to allow the installation of on-street chargers for EVs.
