Amharc ar fhreagra300. Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation the total number of IDA Ireland jobs, including the number of jobs created and lost in 2014, 2015 and 2016, by county, in tabular form; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [2489/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 299 and 300 together.
IDA Ireland’s official employment figures are drawn from an employment survey conducted by my Department on an annual basis. The following table provides a breakdown of the total number of IDA Ireland supported jobs including new jobs created and lost on a county by county basis in IDA Ireland client companies in 2014, 2015 and 2016.
2016 saw the highest level of employment in IDA Ireland client companies in its history, with 199,877 people now employed in companies supported by the Agency. During the last year 18,627 new jobs were created across a range of sectors, with every region of Ireland posting net employment gains.
The table shows total IDA Ireland supported jobs, new jobs created and lost on a county by county basis in IDA Ireland client companies in 2014, 2015 and 2016.
