I propose to take Questions Nos. 107 and 108 together.

The Forfás Annual Employment Survey reports on job gains and losses in companies that are supported by the enterprise development agencies. Details of the number of full time jobs created in each year from 2008 to 2012 in IDA and Enterprise Ireland client companies is set out on a county by county basis in the following tabular statements.

Data is compiled on an annualized basis and is aggregated at county level. The information is provided by companies on a confidential basis for statistical purposes only. It is therefore not possible to provide information for individual locations in a particular county.

I am pleased to say that 2012 was a particularly good year for job creation in Agency supported companies, with IDA client companies creating a total of 12,722 gross new full time jobs and Enterprise Ireland client companies creating a total of 12,861 gross new full time jobs.
