I propose to take Questions Nos. 91 to 93, inclusive, together.

Neither my Department nor the Central Bank compiles detailed information in relation to employment in the international financial services sector in Ireland.

The figure to which the Deputy refers was sourced from a report compiled by the Finance Dublin Yearbook which provides a breakdown of international financial services related employment. Details are reproduced in a report compiled by Accenture and Financial Service Ireland (FSI) entitled "The IFSC: the international financial services sector in Ireland" published in September 2010 and which is available on the IBEC website. I understand that the details the Deputy is seeking is available from those sources.
