I propose to take Questions Nos. 89 and 90 together. The most recent data available on job losses and job gains relate to 1996 and is drawn from the employment survey conducted by Forfás. The survey covers companies assisted by IDA Ireland, Forbairt and Shannon Development. The information sought by the Deputy on job losses and job gains is as follows:
