Further to the commitment in the Government’s Economic Recovery Plan 2021, as well as the Programme for Government, Our Shared Future, the Government adopted the new Trade & Investment Strategy 2022-2026: Value for Ireland, Values for the World in March 2022.
The goal of the Trade & Investment Strategy is to see Ireland grow sustainably, diversify export markets and provide for Ireland’s continued economic wellbeing. The Strategy addresses not only trade and investment issues but also climate and sustainability by setting out a principled and holistic approach to trade policy. The Strategy includes seven priority actions aimed at advancing Ireland’s trade and investment goals, diversifying markets, and strengthening supply chains.
There is no specific budget allocation for the Strategy. The funding of any initiatives related to implementation of the Strategy will be addressed as they arise as part of normal expenditure arrangements and the estimates process.
