Question:

204 Mr. Stagg asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment further to Parliamentary Question No. 298 of 27 January 2004, if there has been further progress in the provision of an alternative manufacturing industry; if the IDA indicated that the use of the facility for a non-manufacturing purpose is the only option now for the site in question; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Written answers

Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (Ms Harney)

IDA Ireland has already circulated a profile of the Celbridge facility to its network of overseas offices but has not been successful in attracting a replacement project. It is understood that interest has been expressed in acquiring the facility for non-manufacturing purposes but agreement has not yet been reached.

Question No. 205 withdrawn.
