The Industrial Development Act, 1986 sets out the grant incentives available to industrial undertakings and the conditions under which grants can be made. In general, the industrial development agencies, namely the IDA and by way of delegated authority, SFADCo, are empowered to grant aid firms manufacturing goods which are intended for export or which in certain circumstances will substitute for imports. A decision on whether grants should be made for a particular project is a matter for the particular agency concerned.
