I was wondering will we see any new incentives proposed to increase spending and get money moving once again.
What I'm talking about are vouchers or tokens that can be used within the country for a given period of time. This type of incentive was talked about on Newstalk this morning as it has been used before in other countries as a means of increasing spending. Could something like this be used in conjunction with hotels etc and be give to the tourists or the general population, possibly focussing in on the NAMA hotels since we own them in effect?
What about the empty business premises? Can they not be used as incentives for new businesses or indeed foreign businesses who might look to invest here if they were to have a premises at a reduced rate or indeed for free? Of course only if they are employing people and increasing revenue.
