Summary

Ireland has made progress in overcoming the economic crisis. The new coalition government’s strategy for restoring sustained growth, sound public finances, and job creation has been put forward in the context of the European Union/IMF-supported program. On this basis, the government adopted a comprehensive strategy to reorganize and deleverage domestic banks, and to strengthen their capital base. Steadfast implementation of policies coupled with support from a comprehensive European plan will foster Ireland's economy.
