CIF serves infrastructure warning to Government ahead of Budget 2017

The Construction Industry Federation is warning the Government that their housing measures and job creation plans won't suceed without investment in infrastructure.

As the Government continues to prepare for Budget 2017, CIF Director General Tom Parlon is predicting that the low level of investment across the economy will be the next crisis that Ireland will have to face.

"The CIF is proposing that any housing policy, under consideration by Government, should coincide with increased expenditure in national infrastructure investment,” CIF director general Tom Parlon said.

“We are predicting that the low level of infrastructure investment, across the country, will be the next crisis Ireland faces,” he added.
