I would inform the Deputy that I announced 25 measures for jobs and growth in my Budget 2014 speech. The measures are designed to promote entrepreneurship, stimulate investment, finance growth, encourage innovation, improve cash flow and protect compliant business by tackling the shadow economy. They are targeted in particular at the tourism and hospitality sector, the construction and building sector, the farming/agriculture and food sector and the film industry. Full details of these measures, many of which will be given legislative underpinning by Finance (No.2) Bill 2013, are set out in Annex C of the Budget book. This is available via my Department's website.
