Annual Report 2014: Enterprise Ireland

Mr. Niall O'Donnellan:

We continue to provide our mentoring programme for our own clients. More than 300 engagements are envisaged this year. We are also directly providing some of our panel to LEO clients. That was a particular focus of the Deputy's. We have also worked with the LEOs on their mentoring panels. Traditionally, they had their own individual panels per county but we have helped them form an integrated panel of approximately 250 mentors who are available to all the LEOs as a unified panel. That means the resource is shared. We went to the 670 mentors that the LEOs had combined and asked them whether they would be willing to join the integrated, central panel and more than 250 elected to do so. That is in progress.
