I mentioned previously on numerous occasions the transformation in people that we saw when we started Lir Chocolates in East Wall during the previous recession. Generally speaking a person who is unemployed has no self confidence. It is not just about the money. It...

Mary White: It would be fatal to put the county enterprise boards under the aegis of the local authorities. I do not see why Enterprise Ireland cannot deal with companies with fewer than ten people.
