Explanation :
I commend Deputy Dara Calleary on the motion. He has rightly pointed out the importance of small and medium enterprises and the fact that 350,000 self-employed people are involved in this sector. It is important to acknowledge the work of small and medium enterprises, which account for a great majority of all active business enterprises in the Republic, employing 68% of the workforce and generating just over half of the State’s annual turnover, according to the Central Statistics Office.

That is all the more reason to give more prominence to the role of the self-employed and business owners in the economy. There is great diversity in the SME sector, ranging from small engineering firms to local supermarkets. While we have a worldwide reputation for exports, particularly in the agriculture sector, more than half of the workforce in Ireland – around 56% – work for native companies that do not export anything. Therefore, unemployment and the jobs crisis cannot be solved by focusing on foreign direct investment alone. If we support the SME sector, and I hope we do, we will ensure there are job opportunities for those with traditional skills as well as people with high-tech qualifications.

For example, it is important to increase PRSI benefits for the self-employed, the importance of access to credit for the SME sector cannot be stressed enough, and we must end the disparity in tax treatment between the self-employed and PAYE workers.
