IBEC: Ireland's reputation needs to be restored
A delegation from employers' organisation IBEC today met in Brussels with senior European Union officials to outline the view of Irish employers on the serious economic challenges facing both Ireland and the EU.
Speaking following talks with European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso, IBEC Director General Danny McCoy said that now was not the time to isolate ourselves in Europe by rejecting the Lisbon Treaty, and called for a 'yes' vote in the October 2 Lisbon Treaty referendum.
