Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 16 May 2024
168. Deputy Louise O'Reilly asked the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the amount of funding issued to businesses under the increased cost-of-business grant by close of scheme, by local authority area, in tabular form. [22233/24]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe latest data on funding, as at 15th May, regarding the ICOB scheme is set out in the table below.
In addition, please note that I, along with my Government colleagues, have today Wednesday 15th May announced a substantial range of measures to reduce costs for small and medium sized businesses.
Amongst the range of measures it was agreed that ICOB portal would be re-opened from today to 29th May. If a rate paying business owner has not registered, they should do so now. We have received feedback that the process of registering is simple and quick.
As part of re-opening the ICOB scheme and given the greater impact that increased costs are having on the hospitality and retail sector, as noted in the DETE-DSP joint working paper titled ‘An Assessment of the Cumulative Impact of Proposed Measures to Improve Working Conditions in Ireland ’, it has been agreed that business operating in these sectors should receive a second payment for approved businesses or a double payment for new registrations under this scheme.
