Welcoming the publication of the report, Tom Parlon, Director General of the Construction Industry Federation and member of the Construction Sector Group said, “The Building Innovation framework charts a way for the construction industry and the State to collaborate efficiently in building a truly innovative and dynamic industry over the next decade. The benefits of doing so will be felt by every citizen in Ireland and in the coming generations. For example, the recently published Programme for Government is heavily dependent on having a dynamic construction industry operating at optimum levels. In addition, the construction industry will be front and centre in driving economic recovery in the near term, the housing required to solve the ongoing crisis, and the infrastructure required to reshape Ireland up to 2040. This requires coordination, coherence and commitment across the industry and the multiple Government agencies involved in the delivery of construction output in Ireland. We look forward to working with our partners to modernise our industry and in doing so rebuild our economy and reshape our society to the maximum positive impact on every citizen’s wellbeing.”
