The information being requested falls within the statutory remit of Enterprise Ireland, an agency under the aegis of my Department. However, I understand that a significant proportion of the requested material now being sought is incorporated in the material recently supplied to Deputy Ryan by Enterprise Ireland following the Deputy's Parliamentary Questions, numbers 406, 407 and 408, of the 17th October.

I am also aware that senior Enterprise Ireland officials are to meet with Deputy Ryan on November 17th and a comprehensive briefing of Enterprise Ireland's Research and Development activities will be provided at that meeting.
