Dáil
‹ Order of Business County enterprise board legislation
Summary
Peadar Tóibín asks when legislation replacing the county enterprise board sector will be introduced; the Taoiseach expects it during the session, with pilot schemes soon.
The county enterprise board sector has been in limbo since 2008 when the former Minister, Mr. Batt O'Keeffe, signalled that it was going to come to an end. Since then, the sector has been rudderless and morale has been low. The Government promised legislation on this to which the SME sector is opposed. When will this legislation come before the Dáil?
