Written Answers. - Job Creation.
I am interpreting this question as referring to the industrial development agencies involved in job creation under the aegis of my Department. The agencies involved are IDA Ireland, Forbairt, Shannon Development and the 35 county enterprise boards.
On this basis, total expenditure in 1997 by the agencies involved in job creation is estimated at £345,139,000.
