Business Owners and Employess in Arklow:

As a business owner or employee do you know the names and faces of the local candidates running for election as Minister of European Parliament in May 2019?

Speaking at the European Parliament in February 2019, Chambers Ireland Chief Executive Ian Talbot called on businesses and their employees to proactively engage with election candidates and highlight their priority concerns ahead of the upcoming election.

European Parliament Elections 2019:

Ahead of the European Parliament elections taking place this May, Chambers Ireland and a delegation of representatives from around the Irish Chamber Network has launched its “Chambers for Europe” manifesto in Brussels.

"Despite collective acknowledgement of the positive role that EU membership continues to play for Ireland, in terms of both peace and economic prosperity, the European elections are often overlooked by voters. With the impending exit of the UK from the EU, Ireland needs to take its relationship with the European Union even more seriously.

“Within our Manifesto, we are calling on candidates for the Parliament elections to prioritise the following issues: investment in our cities and regions, an ambitious international trade agenda, a competitive and global approach to tax reform, a fully-connected digital Europe that supports innovation and a business-friendly framework for a sustainable circular economy.”

Calling on Businesses and Citizens:

Businesses and citizens are encouraged to seize this opportunity to make their voices heard and shape the future of Europe and the degree to which Ireland will benefit.”
