Public Accounts Committee

Procurement Issues: Small Firms Association and Irish Schools Arts Supply Federation

10:00 am

Ms Róisín Fleming:

Unfortunately, we cannot. We would need to do some surveys. We are a very small group of microbusinesses, which means we do not have the resources. That is why we are asking the committee to do an in-depth survey of what is happening, how many companies are going down and how many jobs are being lost. It is not just us. We recently met other groups - the Minister, Deputy Noonan, was there - that have lost business because their industries have come under contract. Ours is not under contract yet.
