I propose to take Questions Nos. 1278 to 1280, inclusive, together.
The Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service has informed me that there continues to be a significant number of enquiries from potential applicants and their representatives for both programmes. To date, one application for the Immigrant Investor Programme has been received as well as eleven applications for the Start-up Entrepreneur Programme. I have recently approved one application under the Immigrant Investor Programme and two applications under the Start-up Entrepreneur Programme on foot of recommendations from the Evaluation Committee. I understand that six of the applications received for the Start-up Entrepreneur Programme remain under consideration by the Evaluation Committee. Statistics are not maintained in respect of individual enquiries.
