ETUC welcomes investment plan adoption

The ETUC welcomed the adoption today of President Juncker’s  €315 billion European investment plan by EU prime Ministers.

This follows its adoption by the European Parliament on Wednesday.

“Investment in growth and jobs has been the key demand of the ETUC since the crisis said Bernadette Ségol, General Secretary of the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC). “This €315billion plan may not be large enough, and may not raise the amount of money it claims, but it is still sends an important signal.”

“The ETUC will monitor its progress and continue to argue for funds to be invested where there is the biggest impact on jobs, and where it is needed most.”
