Enterprise Ireland - Annual Report and Financial Statement 2011

11:50 am

Mr. Frank Ryan:

The Government has set us a target in driving us on to make the maximum contribution we can make, which is what we want to do.

It is very encouraging that we now have job creation. We got export growth in 2011 but we did not get the jobs associated with it because there was still over-capacity on what was previously the domestic side of companies' operations. It started in 2012.
