Mr. John Hughes:

I thank the Deputy. Some of my colleagues from Enterprise Ireland and the IDA employ business advisers who engage directly with companies. There are limits to the expertise we can employ within the individual agencies. This is an additional tool but the agency would still engage with the company. It would be a contract for a specific time with specific objectives for a contracted and specific sum of money. It would not be open-ended or have a certain amount. There is a certain amount available for an individual grant, and that is tied to performance criteria and achievable outcomes.
