I propose to take Questions Nos. 164 and 165 together.
Enterprise Ireland has received 19 completed applications under Stream 1 of the Ukraine Enterprise Crisis Scheme (UECS).A total of 14 approvals, totalling €3,892,208, across 11 counties have been made to date by Enterprise Ireland. A breakdown of applications and approvals by Region is detailed in the table below. Due to the number of approvals, for commercial sensitivity reasons, Enterprise Ireland has not indicated the numbers of approvals as yet on a County basis level.

A total of 3 approvals have been made under Stream 2 of the Scheme totalling €173,274 spread over 3 counties. Due to the number of approvals, for commercial sensitivity reasons, Enterprise Ireland has not indicated the numbers of approvals as yet on a named county basis.
On 20th March 2023, the UECS was extended to 31 December 2023 in the case of Stream 1 and to 31 March 2024 in the case of Stream 2 of the Scheme. The Scheme continues to be open to assist both Agency and non-Agency manufacturers, exporters and internationally traded services companies.
