Leo says we are moving to a decade of expansion
AN Taoiseach, Leo Varadkar, said in Sligo Friday that
Project Ireland 2040, which earmarks Sligo as a regional centre of growth, would herald a decade of growth.
“This marks a significant milestone in our country’s development, the point at which we put a lost decade behind us and move forward into a new decade of expansion.
“This is a plan for all our citizens – the old, the young, and the yet to be born, living in towns, in cities and in the countryside. It follows the spirit of Collins and Lemass, people who always strove to raise the prospects of every Irish citizen.
“It’s about ensuring that all parts of Ireland fulfil their potential. As we approach our 100 thanniversary as a sovereign nation, it’s about investing to ensure our country is insulated against any possible challenges like Brexit.”
“It’s a path to a positive, sustainable future.”
