Deputy Cassells referred to small companies. We all know about large companies, especially American and German multinationals. Would they be getting a bite of this credit? Would the likes of large Irish companies like Glanbia or Kerry Group get it or would it only be for small companies of ten or 20 workers undertaking small research? I suppose that the bulk of the credit is going to the bigger companies.
