If more resources are available in the context of the budget, the Deputy can rest assured we will seek more resources for the local enterprise offices. They created 3,700 jobs last year, which represents an increase of 9%. They could do much more, if they were properly resourced. They have sufficient human resources. Most of them have their full complement of employees. If additional resources are available, we will be pitching for more to be made available to ensure the local enterprise offices are well resourced.
