Pat Breen has defended the record of the IDA, saying that Clare is in 6th place in terms of job creation in the country.
646 IDA jobs were created in Clare last year, and only Dublin, Cork, Limerick, Galway and Kildare, all university cities, received a higher number.
Minister of State Breen says he doesn't have a magic wand to create instant jobs but he insists that efforts are being made to provide positive results next year.
