IDA under fire as mid-west misses out on jobs

EMPLOYERS have attacked the Industrial Development Authority’s (IDA) zero job performance in the mid-west in 2005.

Of 12,605 new jobs created in IDA-supported industry around the country, the Mid West did not get one.

IBEC Mid-West yesterday called on politicians to stand up and shout in protest at the ‘trickle’ of new industrial jobs being created in the region in recent years.
