My knowledge is not specific in this area but I have anecdotal evidence to suggest that the Companies Registration Office tendered at a level which was below the requirement for the European journal. Even when there was no requirement to open up tendering to jobs outside of Ireland, some public companies were doing that which, in effect, was likely to cost Irish jobs during the most acute jobs crisis in this generation.
