Mr. Derek Moran:

That outreach and effort is very impressive. Under one roof in the consul general’s office in New York there are the IDA, Enterprise Ireland and Tourism Ireland reaching out and developing networks. It is concerned not only with multinationals but also with SMEs, finding the opportunities and matching them up. The Deputy is right that when these efforts start, their work is not visible but they do deliver results. The effort of having it all consolidated in one place is a very good example.
