Seán Fleming: The amount of money is so large that the Committee of Public Accounts could do with reassurance from the Apple-Ireland committee that it has seen the audit report from both sides. We presume they are identical but we would like to verify that.

Seán Fleming: We do not want to hear in two years' time that Apple is not satisfied with something after the NTMA has said everything was in order. Apple may have a different view, although I presume it takes a view that is identical to that of the NTMA.

Seán Fleming: I have a question about the Strategic Banking Corporation of Ireland. Page 17 of the NTMA's financial statements notes that its investment has supported 32,000 jobs in Ireland. Does the NTMA make funds available to the Strategic Banking Corporation of Ireland?

Seán Fleming: Can the NTMA give us a breakdown on the 32,000 jobs it supports? Are they organisations? To give an example, IDA Ireland often states how many jobs it supports. It may give a small grant to an organisation that employs 500 people and then say it is supporting 500 jobs. Can the NTMA give us a breakdown of these 32,000 jobs? Would we not have those jobs without the NTMA?

Seán Fleming: It is highlighted here so I ask the NTMA to provide a breakdown of these 32,000 jobs, whether by category, region or companies employing under 500 people, over 50 people, or whatever the NTMA thinks is reasonable.
