Vol. 110 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Industrial Potentialities of Fermoy.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce whether he will endeavour to restore the pre-1921 prosperity of Fermoy by recommending its potentialities to industrialists anxious to set up industries in this country.

I will have the claims of Fermoy brought to the notice of promoters of new industries, but the Deputy will appreciate that I have no power to compel industrialists to establish themselves in any particular place.

Could the Minister not take additional powers so that workers in these areas would not be deprived of earning a livelihood by the nonco-operation of industrialists?
