The Joint Committee on Enterprise, Trade and Employment will meet tomorrow, Wednesday, 23 June, to resume discussions on the reactivation of enterprise, trade and employment following the pandemic restrictions with a particular focus on the role of Local Authorities in this regard.
The meeting at 9.30am in Committee Room 1 of Leinster House will hear from representatives from the County and City Management Association (CCMA).
Committee Cathaoirleach Deputy Maurice Quinlivan said: “Local Authorities have played a key role in supporting businesses and employment throughout the pandemic and have an equally key role to play in assisting and supporting enterprise, workers and jobs as society and the economy reopen in the weeks and months ahead. The Committee looks forward to discussing with the county and city managers the measures that they believe are required to reactivate local economic activity, following similar discussions with the Minister, employers and unions.”
The Joint Committee on Enterprise, Trade and Employment has 14 Members, nine from the Dáil and five from the Seanad.
