My Department monitors the overall performance of the economy and of individual sectors on an ongoing basis.  Key sectors of the economy are subject to scrutiny as part of this process. In addition, my Department plays an active role in supporting and contributing to the Government's range of strategies such as the Construction 2020 Strategy and the Action Plan for Jobs 2015 as well as taxation policy.

These strategies are designed to ensure that the economy, employment and living standards will continue to increase on a sustainable basis across all sectors in the short and longer terms.
