I congratulate Enterprise Ireland on the excellent figures presented to us today.

I wish to focus on the LEOs. I have been advised that because of the change from county enterprise boards with CEOs leaving and roles changing there may have been staffing difficulties in the LEOs. About a month and a half ago some people told me that they were advised that the start-your-own business courses in their county were full and would be full until the end of October. The have had to travel to a different county to do those courses. Is Enterprise Ireland happy with the staffing and the resources the LEOs have to deliver to that key microenterprise sector?
