Annual Report and Accounts 2012: Discussion with IDA Ireland

11:30 am

Mr. Barry O'Leary:

Until recently we had an employment control framework of 254 people; that does not necessarily mean we would have had 254 people on board as we must wait for permission to fill a vacancy and technically, the number would never be quite achieved. As part of a reorganisation of some State agencies, the majority of Forfás is going into the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation. We are in a multi-tenanted building and there may be five or six organisations in it. Forfás were running the services and management of leases, as well as some other properties. A team of 12 people from Forfás have come over to IDA Ireland from 1 July to work on those functions which are not just related to IDA. There are some accountants and lawyers in the building-----
