Ambition in Delivery Must be Focus of Capital Investment Programme

Chambers Ireland today (29/09/15) welcomes the publication of Government’s six year €27 billion capital investment programme.

Commenting on Government’s investment priorities, Ian Talbot, Chief Executive of Chambers Ireland, said: “Investing in our social, economic and physical infrastructure has consistently been highlighted by Chambers Ireland as a necessity to support our future economic growth.”

“Upgrading vital national infrastructure such as transport networks and flood defences will reinforce Ireland’s future economic development and help unlock the economic potential of our regions. We strongly welcome today’s announcement, which marks the beginning of a process of tackling our legacy of underinvestment in infrastructure. However, Government must be ambitious in terms of time lines and the focus must now be on the swift delivery of these projects”, he concluded.
