Mr. Dermot Mulligan:

As I am sure the Deputy will know, there are quite specific and concrete proposals in 'Global Ireland' - Ireland's Global Footprint to 2025 on how we will double the global footprint. This includes on our own agencies in the European area and expanding the IDA Ireland presence in Paris, at its new European headquarters in Frankfurt and in Washington, New York, Seattle, North Carolina and California. It covers the period up to 2025.
