Adams calls for more business aid

THE Government should give more attention to helping business, Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams told business leaders in Dublin yesterday.

Mr Adams called for a single business development agency to benefit both small and large organisations and remove the current “two-tiered structure” that favours multinationals over smaller domestic businesses.

Speaking at a Dublin Chamber of Commerce breakfast briefing, Mr Adams chose not to dwell on the current controversy linking Sinn Féin with ongoing paramilitary activity and instead spoke of the need to reform “the most unjust tax regime in Europe”.
