ConnectIreland created plenty of jobs in Ireland and the Deputy is correct that there is a dispute. I understand that this week a meeting was held between the chief executives of ConnectIreland and IDA Ireland. It is, however, prudent to do a review as there is much taxpayer money involved. I must understand exactly how that initiative functioned, as well as its strong and weak points, as I mentioned. The experience of IDA Ireland in this area is unparalleled and we must be careful not to risk defusing expertise and awareness of multiple entities and governance arrangements. I want to see the review and the figures.
