Question:
To ask the Minister of Enterprise, Trade and Investment how many jobs have been created in the hospitality sector in East Londonderry in each of the last three years.

Answer:

Invest NI is unable to provide a breakdown of how many jobs have been created in each of the last three years as information relating to job creation is commercially sensitive at business level while a project is still ‘live’. In order to ensure that individual companies are not identifiable, Invest NI therefore applies statistical disclosure controls.

As there are less than 5 companies in each individual year Invest NI is not able to release the information as an individual company could be identifiable.

Information relating to job creation by specific companies will become publically available once a project is complete and the control period has ended.
