How many visits has the IDA made to County Tipperary in comparison with other counties from 2016 to date? According to the findings of the South East Economic Monitor, IDA supported jobs are among the highest paid in the country, with 75% of all such jobs having incomes in excess of €35,000. While 8.8% of the population resides in the south-east, just 5.4% of all IDA supported employment was there until recently. That is 61% of the fair share.
