Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation
Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals
3:00 pm
Mr. Pat Kelly:
No, we have had no indication that cost is an issue. In fact, there are thousands of applications. The success rate is probably about 20%. It might be the case that repeated application are costing individuals but our success rate is above the EU average. We are not falling down on the success rate of applications, nor are we concerned or has it been brought to our attention that the cost of application is an issue.
