Social Justice Ireland welcomes the European Commission’s Country Specific Recommendations
The European Commission last week (05 June 2019) published its Country Specific Recommendations for Ireland as part of its European Semester work programme. The three recommendations for 2019/2020 focus once again on the need for Ireland to broaden the tax base, as well as supports for low work intensity households and targeted investment. These are areas on which the European Commission have made recommendations previously and, while Ireland has made some improvements in recent years, we have a long way to go.
