John Browne
Ceist:67 Mr. Browne (Carlow-Kilkenny) asked the Minister for Enterprise and Employment if he will give a breakdown of the approved IDA grants in the South-East Region for the past two years.
Written Answers. - IDA Grants.
I am informed by the IDA that since 1990, they have reported on their activities on the basis of actual job creation, actual spending by industry in the Irish economy and the actual payment of grants to client companies. Grant approval figures are no longer made available as they have tended to confuse the situation in relation to actual payments to companies and hence the actual cost of industrial projects.
However, as the Deputy is probably aware, information in relation to total grants paid by the IDA in 1991 and 1992 is contained in that organisation's annual report and accounts which were laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas on 25 June, 1992 and 15 July, 1993 respectively. While copies of the reports are available in the Library, I am arranging for copies of a tabular statement giving these details to be circulated with the Official Report. The 1993 Annual Report and Accounts will not be available until mid 1994.
