"In 2018, the construction industry in Ireland is projected to grow its value by 14 % to EUR 19.5 billion, which will lead to further growth within our construction SMEs and craftsmen, as well as the creation of additional jobs. We believe we have an important role to play in the attainment of favourable conditions for the sector and thus want to ensure that our voice is not only heard in Ireland but also in Brussels."

EBC President Rinaldo Incerpi added: "We look forward to working with our Irish colleagues on ongoing and future initiatives at EBC, to tackle together the challenges and to grasp the opportunities that the construction sector will offer in the coming years."
