In the following analysis we examine how domestic businesses assessed various institutions and public offices in terms of efficiency and quality of the services they provide. The analysis is based on the October 2010, July 2014 and January 2015 business climate surveys of the Institute for Economic and Enterprise Research (IEER). The businesses surveyed believe that in January 2015 the land registry office functioned the most efficiently and the services they provided were of the highest quality; the lowest ratings were given to hospitals. Among educational institutions colleges and universities were rated best by companies, the worst were vocational schools. Among the periods examined, companies evaluated institutions most positively in July 2014. After this the views of businesses typically worsened, and the results of January 2015 have fallen back to 2010 levels.
