U.S. President, Donald Trump, planned to hold meetings on Monday with business and labour leaders to discuss manufacturing and other matters as he starts his first full week in office.
According to his schedule, he is to meet with business leaders at 9 a.m., followed by an afternoon meeting with labour leaders and U.S. workers.
The White House, which announced the meetings in a daily schedule released on Sunday, did not name specific company executives or union leaders.

However, a news report indicated that the meeting would include Dow Chemical Co (DOW.N) Chief Executive Officer Andrew Liveris, whom Trump tapped in December to lead a private-sector advisory group on manufacturing.
The media report could not immediately confirm the report, which cited an administration official.
Trump had said he planned to discuss U.S. manufacturing with some executives but gave no other details.
Before taking office, Trump hosted a number of U.S. CEOs in meetings in New York, including those from defence, technology and other sectors.
He also met with leaders of several unions, including the AFL-CIO.
