Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation
Community Partnership Mobilisation Programme: ConnectIreland
1:30 pm
Ms Joanna Murphy:
Currently we operate within the Twenty-six Counties. That is not to say we do not have connectors from every corner of Ireland and the globe. We have people everywhere and if jobs are created in Belfast, as the Senator knows, the people who will work there invariably will come from Dundalk and vice versa. We have an ambition that this programme would be developed and would become an all-Ireland programme. It seems like a sensible thing to do in terms of brand Ireland being one green product. As a tiny island, it would certainly be an ambition to expand that.
