In this its 36th year, we look back at 2010 and offer our outlook for 2011 and beyond
In this its 36th year, we look back at 2010 for the industry as a whole, key industry, sector, and regional developments, as well as developments on the international stage. In our outlook for 2011 we call on the government to clear the path for alternative sources of funding for construction projects. Pension Funds and Project Bonds are used to great effect in other EU countries and should be employed here in Ireland to address our infrastructure deficit and increasing unemployment in the construction sector.
We also look at the significant improvement in the value-for-money available and the urgent need for formal representation at government level for the industry.
