Fianna Fáil candidate criticises Sinn Féin for not publishing manifesto in advance of Monday’s leaders’ debate
He said the fiscal framework in the Fine Gael manifesto also did not appear to provide for more healthcare workers. He also said he was concerned, particularly with an ageing population, as to whether Fine Gael planned for increased recruitment in the healthcare system. “I don’t think the Irish public would like to see an embargo in our healthcare system for five years.”, said Fine Gael deserved credit for publishing a manifesto while the Sinn Féin manifesto was “missing in action”.
Among the measures announced by Fianna Fáil were an annual €300 million business support fund to enhance the viability of businesses in villages and towns, and a €2 billion towns investment fund to upgrade towns and make them a more attractive place in which to live, shop and work. Other policies announced by Fianna Fáil included reducing the rate of employers’ PRSI in the case of minimum wage workers, driving down business costs by way of investment and reform, reducing red tape and supporting family-owned businesses through the taxation system and training and skills supports.
