1 Action Plan for Jobs: Regional Presentation to Leader Group, 2 September 2015

Economic recovery & jobs growth not being experienced to the same extent in all regions Action Plan for Jobs – emphasis on developing jobs potential of each region. 8 Regional Action Plans. Whole-of-Government initiative, being led by Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation with input from across the widest possible range of stakeholders in the public and private sector. Builds on the national Action Plan for Jobs process, but with a bottom-up approach from the regions. Background

Series of practical actions to support enterprise growth and job creation in the region, with clear timelines for delivery (commitments by LEOs, EI, IDA, Failte Ireland). Collaborative efforts of all stakeholders will make a real and lasting impact on jobs potential of the region. Regional APJs will cover , but will be flexible and dynamic to allow additional actions to be added as they emerge over the period of the plan. Ownership by the region will be critical for success. Timeline for delivery – 2 plans Midlands and South West published July 2015, West, Mid West and South East to be published in September, Border (October) and 2 further Plans in development (Dublin and Mid-East). Regional Action Plans will dovetail with the statutory plans to be developed by the Local Authorities and the three new Regional Assemblies (see graphic). Three new funds announced to support projects for Community-driven enterprise initiatives, LEOs and a Competitive Regional call. Overview of Regional Plans
