  43.  Ms Shortall      asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment      the progress made by the monitoring process established to consider and track progress in implementing the recommendations of the National Competi[1067]tiveness Council’s annual report for 2003; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [18081/04]

Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (Ms Harney):    Last month my Department chaired an interdepartmental meeting to discuss progress on the implementation of the National Competitiveness Council’s recommendations with the relevant Departments concerned. My Department is preparing the first report to the Government arising from its decision of 25 November 2003 to review Ireland’s competitiveness status, including the implementation of the National Competitiveness Council’s recommendations at twice-yearly intervals. It is intended that that report will be presented to Government for its consideration later this month.
