Abstract:
My brief, as I understand it, is to examine the present economic circumstances of Northern Ireland, particularly within the context of the 1970-75 Development Programme. I propose first to look selectively at some of the main objectives of the programme, then consider the record to date, together with the major emergency measures which have been taken because of the troubles. Next I would like to raise some questions about the appropriateness of the means chosen to encourage economic development. Finally, I wish to ask where do or should we go from here, both as regards goals and means of economic development, in the light of possible new political institutions and within the context of the European Communities.
