Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Progress Update: Discussion with Microfinance Ireland

3:05 pm

Ms Geraldine Kelly:

In response to Senator White, I might comment on our expectations for next year. From my perspective on the board, a ten-year plan is just that, and is a long way out. Our specific focus on strategy is on the next five years and specifically on next year. Ms Murray has already noted we anticipate that we will support double the number of jobs next year. We have supported 250 already this year and may have another number by the end of the year, by which time we might even get it to 300. We anticipate that we will support at least 500 jobs next year and that basically is the context in which to address that question.
