Brian Cowen speech in USA where he says:

“We have to be prepared to invest in our cultural infrastructure here, as we do in Ireland.
As a first step, I am asking Culture Ireland with the Department of Arts, Sports and Tourism and the Department of Foreign Affairs, to prepare a series of high profile cultural events in this country in 2011 to take advantage of recovery.”
