PQ 346
346. Deputy Eoin Hayes asked the Minister for Rural and Community Development and the Gaeltacht if he accepts that the majority of social enterprises in Ireland operate in areas of persistent market failure, delivering services that are needed but cannot be made commercially self-sustaining, rather than functioning as conventional, profit-maximising market actors; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
