Vote 32 - Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation (Revised) (11 Jun 2013) Peadar Tóibín: These are facts that may help us get a better understanding. Although much of the administration is from the Department each of the agencies also has its own administration so the administration of this Department may not be directly comparable with that of other Departments that may have fewer agencies delivering programmes. Would it be possible to get figures of administration costs per...

Vote 32 - Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation (Revised) (11 Jun 2013) Peadar Tóibín: I accept the Minister and the Department are busy. The point I was trying to make in regard to the administration of the Department in its entirety was that there is a difference between being busy and outputs. Where I would have issues in regard to the Minister's work is in regard to outputs. He mentioned that the issue of job creation has not reached every door and I made the point that...

Vote 32 - Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation (Revised) (11 Jun 2013) Peadar Tóibín: I am unsure as to whether the Minister referred to the ability of the Companies Registration Office to deal with the transition under the Companies Bill's new strictures. While I understand there will be a reduction in funds to allow for inspections by the Health and Safety Authority, that there were 48 deaths in 2012 underlines how critical it is we enforce standards in industry. The...

Vote 32 - Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation (Revised) (11 Jun 2013) Peadar Tóibín: I refer to my question about the large scale awards. The Minister of State mentioned the sectors these were in and also mentioned the perinatal work in Cork. In regard to other geographical areas, was there, say, a figure of 50% identified for centres outside Dublin and Cork, or are they all to be found in those two city areas? My second question relates to the number of patents being...

Vote 32 - Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation (Revised) (11 Jun 2013) Peadar Tóibín: I refer to page 23, on workplace relations. When will this be presented before committee? Page 24 deals with the Companies Registration Office, CRO. This body will have a big job of work to do with regard to the Companies Bill and to allow for a smooth transition. I do not see anything assigned to the CRO to allow for that and ensure it does not suffer. The Competition Authority targets...
