Amharc ar fhreagra97. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation if he will provide, by county, a breakdown of the number of Industrial Development Agency Ireland sponsored visits from the start of quarter one to the end of quarter three, 2015; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 92, 96 and 97 together.
My Department’s Annual Employment Survey reports on employment in companies supported by the Enterprise Development agencies. Data is compiled on an annual basis and is published on a 10-year time series. I have asked IDA Ireland to compile a table reflecting the time series requested by the Deputy and will provide this information as soon as it received.
IDA Ireland data on jobs created during 2015 will not be available until the Annual Employment Survey 2015 results are published in early 2016.
I am informed by IDA Ireland from the beginning of January 2015 to the end of June 2015, there were a total of 247 IDA Ireland-sponsored site visits by potential investors to various locations across the country. A breakdown of this figure is given in the attached tabular statement.
The site visit figures have not yet been verified for quarter 3 and will not be available until later this month. I will provide the Deputy with this information as soon as it is available.
Table shows the total number of IDA Ireland sponsored site visits by potential investors by county from January 2015 to end of June 2015.
