Written answers

Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (Deputy Mary Coughlan)

The detailed information being sought by the Deputy, going back to 2004, is currently being compiled across my Department. However, in the short time available to me since the Deputy tabled this Question, I am not in a position to provide those details at present. A full response will be forwarded to the Deputy as soon as possible.
