Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 12 July 2016
780. Deputy James Lawless asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation the number of IDA Ireland-assisted companies based in Scotland; the number of employees in these companies; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [20460/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraI understand the Deputy means Scottish-owned IDA Ireland client companies.
IDA Ireland categorises client companies from countries in the United Kingdom together and consequently, is unable to provide figures for Scotland.
Employment in IDA Ireland client companies from the UK stood at 6,827 in 2015. This represents 4% of the total IDA Ireland client company employment of 187,056.
