Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation (Deputy Richard Bruton)

Several announcements have been made this year on jobs to be created in companies supported by Enterprise Ireland and IDA Ireland and on jobs to be created through expansion of agency-supported client companies, in the Dublin Region. However, it should be noted that, for a variety of reasons, some companies do not announce their job creation or expansion plans.

Details of jobs announced by Enterprise Ireland and IDA Ireland are set out in the table accompanying this reply and further information may be obtained from the agencies' websites. Figures in respect of jobs created by companies assisted by the four County and City Enterprise Boards operating in the Dublin Region are compiled on an annualised basis. Details concerning jobs created during 2011 will be available in the early part of 2012.

Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation (Deputy Richard Bruton)

The figures for jobs lost in companies assisted by the Enterprise Development agencies which operate under the auspices of my Department and the County and City Enterprise Boards are compiled on an annualised basis, therefore, the figures in respect of 2011, will not be available until the early part of 2012.
