General Scheme of the Industrial Development (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2025: Discussion

2:00 am

Ms Síle Murray:

To add to Mr. Hughes's comments, as is provided in section 30 of the Industrial Development Act 1986, it relates to acquiring licences or knowledge of a product or method of production and the payment of fees relating to technical advisers consulted in connection with the acquisition of the technology, and the salaries and wages paid to and travel subsistence expenses of persons engaged in the acquisition of the technology. We are somewhat constrained by what is provided in the legislation but that is essentially what the expenditure relates to.
