I propose to take Questions Nos. 233 to 235, inclusive, together.

Figures in respect of the number of jobs created or lost in firms assisted by the industrial development agencies, IDA Ireland, Enterprise Ireland and Shannon Development, are compiled annually in the Forfás Annual Employment Survey. As the information is compiled on an annualised basis, the figures in respect of 2011 will not be available until 2012. Details of the number of jobs created in agency-assisted companies on an annual basis over the last three years are set out in Table A accompanying this reply. Details of jobs created in those companies by sector are set out in Table B.

My Department does not collect or retain information on the number of jobs that have been created or lost in County and City Enterprise Board assisted companies. However, statistical information in relation to details of jobs existing in companies assisted by the County and City Enterprise Boards is collated annually and is set out in Table C in respect of the last three years. Figures in respect of 2011 will be available in the early part of 2012.
