While the provision of grants by the enterprise agencies to companies is a day to day operational matter for the agencies themselves, and not one in which I have a role, I understand from Enterprise Ireland that the company in question was paid grants totalling €6,586,470 in respect of its operations at Tallaght and Grange Castle. Included in this total is a capital grant of €444,408 (paid in January 1997) in respect of plant and machinery for the Tallaght facility. Manufacturing moved to the Grange Castle plant in 2008. No grant in respect of production plant and machinery was paid in respect of this facility.
