  • Cowen addresses NI investment conference

    17:41 Taoiseach Brian Cowen has asked 120 US business executives not to think about what they could do for Northern Ireland but to focus on what Northern Ireland could do for them. He was addressing the US-Northern Ireland investment conference in Stormont this afternoon along with British prime minister Gordon Brown, First Minister the Rev Ian Paisley, and Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness. Those at the conference include New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Mr Cowen said he was delighted that one of his first engagements as Taoiseach brought him to Northern Ireland where there was "something truly special happening".
