Employment data in respect of companies supported by the enterprise agencies (Enterprise Ireland, IDA Ireland and Shannon Development) is collated by Forfás on an annual basis and accordingly there is no data available for 2007. The attached tabular statements show the number of new full time jobs created in Enterprise Agency assisted companies for each of the years 2004, 2005 and 2006.

In addition to these new permanent full time jobs, over the same period the County Enterprise Boards have assisted in the creation of 630 net new jobs throughout the country.
