Taxation group urges Government to use Budget to support SMEs

The Irish Taxation Institute (ITI) has called on Government to introduce measures in the forthcoming Budget to support the growth of indigenous Irish companies and boost job creation.

Speaking ahead of today’s Cabinet meeting on Budget 2011, the ITI highlighted the fact that future growth in the economy would be largely driven by Ireland’s 84,000 SMEs which currently employ almost 620,000 people.
