EII met with @RobertTroyTD yesterday in relation to the new CBAS Scheme. We highlighted the fact that this scheme does not meet the needs of many of our members-more funding is needed to keep our businesses alive. We will keep pushing on behalf of the industry.

EII are very disappointed with the level of funding announced in the new CBAS fund. The max support of €8k will do little to help companies in our struggling industry. Tag your local T.D.-we need meaningful support and engagement, we need it now. ow.ly/PJnV50DwUPZ

With physical business events being forced to hibernate by Govt, the CRSS MUST BE EXTENDED to ensure credit is available to our members to get them through this period. @FineGael @fiannafail @labour @sinnfein @greenparty_ie

Well done to #EII board member Paul Davis, who met with Minister @cathmartingreen & Tanaiste @LeoVaradkar today. Paul, on behalf of EII, met with both ministers for a pre-budget briefing to outline the EII’s budget submission, as part of the first Hospitality & Tourism Forum.
