Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 2 October 2014
95. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation if he will provide in tabular form a breakdown of the total funds distributed by the local enterprise offices by county per month in 2013 and to date in 2014. [37479/14]
View answerDetails of the funding distributed by the Local Enterprise Offices (LEOs) by County in 2013 and in 2014 to date are set out in the following table. This information is not available on a monthly basis as there would be a significant administrative burden on the LEOs in reporting at such a frequency.
The Deputy should note that the information provided for 2013 relates to the County Enterprise Boards (CEBs), while the information provided for 2014 represents combined CEB and LEO expenditure, since the CEBs were dissolved on 15 April 2014. The Local Authorities for Counties Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford have recently merged resulting in the City and County Enterprise Boards in those areas being combined as a single LEO. Therefore the 2014 figures for the former CEBs in these Counties have been amalgamated, as have the figures for the CEBs in Cork North and Cork West, which now operate as a single LEO.
As in 2013 the expectation for 2014 is that the budget allocation available to the LEOs will be fully drawn down by year end.
