My Department and its agencies are working towards ambitious targets to ensure that employment and investment are distributed as evenly as possible across the country. I am pleased to say that significant progress is being made with 58% of all IDA employment now outside of Dublin. This represents the highest number of people employed by IDA clients outside of Dublin in the history of the organisation. 2018 saw more IDA jobs added in the regions than at any time over the past 17 years.
I am determined, together with the IDA, to see this trend continue and we will be doing everything possible in 2019 to encourage more firms to invest further in the regions.
The following table provides, in the format requested, a detailed breakdown of employment by IDA Ireland client companies for 2017 and 2018.
