Need for National Development Corporation

Summary

Lyons questioned whether the National Development Corporation was needed given the figures discussed. Dukes rejected that conclusion, saying the business expansion scheme’s success did not make the corporation unnecessary.

Would the Minister not agree that the introduction of the National Development Corporation is unnecessary even by these limited figures?

Premeditated.

That seems to be an unrelated question. I would not for a moment share the Deputy's conclusion that we do not need the National Development Corporation simply because the business expansion scheme has been so successful.
