Deputy Devlin is online. If he uses his raise hand signal, I can let him in.

I will ask about the cost of new jobs from Enterprise Ireland's point of view. In 2021, there were 7,400 new jobs and a net gain of 2,999. When it is counted as the net gain, the cost per job, I notice, has tumbled down to just over €3,000 per job from I think around €12,000. Is Enterprise Ireland counting the total number of new jobs or just the net gains?
