The White Paper on Enterprise 2022 – 2030 states that Social Enterprises, mostly micro-enterprises or SMEs, are an important and growing part of Ireland’s entrepreneurship ecosystem, creating jobs and stimulating local economic activity, and are recognised as an integral part of Ireland’s broad enterprise policy landscape. Requests for information in relation to grants or relief given to social enterprises for research and innovation would fall within the remit of my colleague, the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment.
