The Forfás Annual Employment Survey reports on job gains and losses in companies that are clients of the industrial development agencies. Information is collected on an annualised basis and is aggregated at county level. Figures for 2008 will not be available until early 2009. The numbers of new jobs created by IDA supported companies in Co. Laois in each year of the 10 year period 1998-07 are shown on the tabular statement. IDA collaborates with other stakeholders in an effort to develop the region and through its network of overseas offices the Agency continues to market the area to potential investors.
