The cost per job as published in IDA Ireland's Annual Reports for the years 2009 and 2010, which are available on the agency's web-site, is set out in the accompanying table. Information relating to 2011 will be included in the 2011 Annual Report which will be published later this year. The Agency has informed me that it does not present this material on a County basis.

Question:213 Deputy Peadar Tóibín asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation the grants awarded by the Industrial Development Agency in County Tipperary for 2010; and the number of jobs created or maintained by each grant. [6320/12]
View answerI am informed by IDA Ireland that details of grants approved and paid to individual companies is not made publicly available as disclosure of such information could compromise the Agency's negotiating position with other investors. I can confirm, however, that grants paid by IDA Ireland to its client companies in County Tipperary in 2010 totalled €17,055,098.
IDA Ireland has also explained that grants paid in any particular year do not necessarily relate to projects approved in that year and that, cosequently, there is no corelation between grants paid and jobs created in any particular year.
The number of jobs created in County Tipperary during 2010 is outlined in the table:
