Pearse Doherty: I will put on the record that he is deliberately misleading the Dáil because he cannot defend the fact that he delivered fewer houses this year than last. That is the problem. It is deflection.

Darragh O'Brien: Stop for a second; just relax. It will disappoint Deputy Doherty that we will exceed our target substantially this year, as we have done in every year of Housing for All. We have delivered 125,000 new homes. More than 500 first-time buyers a week are drawing down their mortgages using the supports this Government brought in, such as the help-to-buy grant. For people watching in, the...

Louise O'Reilly: To echo the sentiment expressed by Deputy Bruton in regard to consistency, we all engage with the LEOs in our own areas but it would be fair to say that some areas are stronger than others. While I might not agree directly with Deputy Bruton’s proposal in terms of centres of excellence, there is definitely a space whereby efforts can be made to ensure consistency across the board....

Emer Higgins: We aim for consistency across our 31 local enterprise offices. One of the reasons we have models through our local enterprise offices in every local authority is because decarbonisation is as important in Donegal as it is in Dublin, Cork or Clare. I fully agree with what Deputy Bruton said about the success of group schemes. We need to learn from that. We as a Department are very much...

Brendan Smith: 71. To ask the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment if, in view of the importance of developing enterprise centres and workspaces, a new scheme of grant aid will be introduced to assist local authorities and community groups with such developments; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Brendan Smith: 76. To ask the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment if additional financial support will be made available to local authorities and community groups to develop enterprise centres or workspaces, taking into account the importance of such facilities in assisting job creation, especially in smaller towns and villages; if he is aware of the substantial costs on local authorities and...

Brendan Smith: The Minister of State will have heard me speak previously about the value of enterprise centres and the development of workspaces. Grant schemes are available to help develop such centres but they are not adequate, particularly for local authorities that have a low rates base. I appeal to the Minister of State to ensure there is an additional scheme of assistance to help those local...

Emer Higgins: I propose to take Questions Nos. 71 and 76 together. Balanced regional enterprise development remains a key focus for me and for the Government, as affirmed in the White Paper on enterprise. I very much appreciate the contribution made by enterprise and remote working hubs throughout the country. These facilities allow people to live and work in their local communities and provide vital...

Brendan Smith: I thank the Minister of State for her reply. The point I have been trying to get across to successive Ministers in the Department is, in the case of Cavan and Monaghan where we have a great culture of developing enterprise centres, typically the local authority or community group buys the site and develops the services at major cost because of the drumlin topography and soil in the area....
