Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 19 May 2010
171 Deputy Brian Hayes asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs the number of jobs his Department claimed will be created as part of published policy papers, reports and documents commissioned by or compiled by his Department between 2010 and 2020; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answerWhile the advancement of Ireland‘s economic interests is a strong priority for the Department of Foreign Affairs, in particular through the efforts of our Embassies to promote trade, tourism and investment and our efforts to develop the Global Irish Network, I have not commissioned or published any policy papers specifically on employment creation as this is not an issue which comes within the remit of the Department.
