Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 27 September 2022
22. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the number of full-time staff vacancies by job title in IDA Ireland as of 21 September 2022; the estimated full-year cost of filling each of these vacancies; and when these vacancies will be filled in tabular form. [47173/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy is aware, 2021 was a record year for foreign direct investment and in the first half of this year we have exceeded that again, with investment up 9% on the same period last year. IDA Ireland in July reported significant investment growth in the first half of 2022, returning FDI employment creation plans to above the pre-pandemic 2019 record levels, despite a continuing challenging global environment.
We should never forget that the jobs and revenue created by multinationals helped to keep us out of recession when the pandemic hit and are now giving us the financial firepower to ease the cost of living crisis and avoid recession once again
We have worked hard to create a welcoming environment for FDI in all parts of the country and the strong regional spread of jobs and investment in today’s results demonstrates government policy, with 73 of the 155 investments outside of Dublin. We want long-term sustainable jobs, work that pays better, in every county in the country.
In the first half of 2022, 155 investments were won, with associated employment potential of over 18,000 jobs. Several investments approved and announced in the first half of the year involve large job numbers and significant capital investments.
IDA Ireland continues to compete to recruit for the best talent in the market to work with clients and to win new investments for Ireland. There are currently 35 full-time staff vacancies in IDA Ireland. The break down of these vacancies, the estimated full-year cost of filling them and when they are expected to be filled are in the table as follows;
