Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Annual Report 2013 and Microenterprise Policy: Enterprise Ireland

2:25 pm

Ms Julie Sinnamon:

Enterprise Ireland has been asked to take a lead role in this area and work will start immediately to develop the database.

The Deputy referred to Enterprise Ireland's website. The level of traffic on website is massive. In June alone, 45,000 people accessed information through the site. I asked our information technology people what is the level of complaints about access to information and they inform me they have not received any complaints. That does not mean people do not have views on the website. We would welcome some specific input. Rather than have people manoeuvre their way through the site, we are open to the idea of being able to submit questions. We have done this in respect of local enterprises offices. I will feed the Deputy's suggestion into the system. However, we receive a considerable amount of positive feedback, although I am aware that it can be difficult at times.
