Irish Economic Boom is "Largely Wasted"

More background on prospects for the Irish Economy...

This research report concludes that the recent high income years in Ireland have been "largely wasted" on housing, commercial and retail construction.  As a consequence, investment in national infrastructure (hospitals, schools, transportation and telecommunication) is insufficient, and in need of careful attention.

Focusing public investment in education is seen as a key to Ireland's future.
