Frances Fitzgerald (Dublin Mid West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

This will primarily be affected by continued economic development and the Action Plan for Jobs, and I assure the Deputy the Regional Action Plan for Jobs will make absolutely sure every area in the country benefits from the job creation we see, as it has already in terms of the percentage of jobs last year. There was growth in Dublin but there was also growth in all regions. The area about which the Deputy is speaking is an area that does need focus and attention.
