Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 6 July 2016
194. Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the level of Údarás na Gaeltachta supported jobs on a county basis at 20 June 2015, 31 December 2015 and 30 June 2016, in tabular form; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [20011/16]
View answerI understand from Údarás na Gaeltachta that job figures are collected annually on a specific date in the last quarter of each year. Consequently the Deputy will appreciate that the organisation does not have job figures for the dates specified in the question. However an tÚdarás has provided job figures for year end 2015 along with year end figures for 2014 and 2013. These figures are outlined in the table.
