Labour leader launches paper on economy

LABOUR Party Leader Pat Rabbitte will today unveil what is being described as a major policy paper outlining his alternative blueprint for the future of the Irish economy.

Mr Rabbitte has chosen the highly symbolic location of the Sheriff Street Youth Club to launch the ‘Fair Economy’ paper.

It outlines the principles and frameworks of Labour’s economic policies and will, according to party sources, provide the economic basis for Mr Rabbitte’s ‘Fair Society’, first outlined during his party’s national conference in May 2003.
