Public Accounts Committee

Special Report No. 104 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Waterford Institute of Technology - Development and Disposal of Intellectual Property in FeedHenry

9:00 am

Dr. James O'Sullivan:

We are saying that in addition to the financial returns to the institute, we need to look at the wider picture. I know the issue of the number of jobs that are created in the region has been addressed before. It is in excess of 100 high-quality jobs and that needs to be factored into any calculation looking at the outputs. We need to look at the entire picture, not just the money that comes back into the institute.
