Promoting Economic Activity and Employment in Ireland
The Council is finalising work to inform and stimulate discussion of policy possibilities which can strengthen economic recovery and address the major challenges of unemployment, social inclusion and sustainable development. The work is motivated by profound anxieties about Ireland’s future prosperity and the availability of employment and public revenue to meet individual and social needs. There is no doubt that some of these anxieties concern the prevailing framework of policy at national and EU level and this is noted in the report. Against this backdrop the report’s main focus is additional policy measures that Ireland could take to encourage domestic demand, enhance the flow of credit to business, increase employment, reduce unemployment and strengthen business development.
