Kelleher at Sydney networking lunch

Sydney: Minister for Trade and Commerce Billy Kelleher was guest speaker at the Lansdowne Club’s annual St Patrick’s Day lunch in Sydney — the largest business networking lunch in Australia, with over 1,200 people present.

Mr Kelleher told guests that the world’s economic landscape has changed dramatically in the last couple of years. He said Ireland is no exception to this but the economy retains many of its underlying strengths and the Government is committed to dealing with the economic crisis.
