The Irish Small & Medium Enterprises Association (ISME) has today called on the Taoiseach to ensure that a minister with direct responsibility for the SME sector and a brief to develop indigenous small and medium enterprises is re-appointed.
 
The ISME claim the new Government must shift the focus from the 'multinationals at all costs' approach to adopting a policy that also assists in the promotion of indigenous enterprise and in particular the development of SMEs. 
 
ISME Chief Executive, Mark Fielding says, "SMEs account for 99% of all business entities and Government needs to show its commitment to the Irish SME sector, which employs over 850,000, generates over €12 billion for the exchequer annually, by re-appointing a SME minister with direct responsibility for developing, stimulating and incentivising indigenous business."
