Employment data in respect of companies supported by the Enterprise Agencies (Enterprise Ireland, IDA Ireland and Shannon Development) is collated by Forfás on a county and annual basis only, and accordingly data is not available for 2008 nor can figures be provided on a town or sub-county basis. The following table outlines the number of persons in permanent employment in Enterprise Agency assisted manufacturing firms in the counties in question in 2007.

Please note that the figures do not include persons in permanent employment in manufacturing firms supported by Údarás na Gaeltachta which falls within the remit of my colleague, the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht affairs.
