Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 19 January 2010
210 Deputy Michael Ring asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the position regarding a project (details supplied) in County Mayo; the number of units that are available at that location; the number of units that have been occupied; if there is any active interest in the location by investors; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

View answerThe management of IDA Ireland's industrial property portfolio, including the creation and development of business parks, are day-to-day operational matters for the agency and not matters in which I have a function.
I have been informed by IDA that the Westport Business and Technology Park consists of 14.88 hectares of which 9.56 hectares are available for investment projects. One unit has been built on the park and is currently occupied. There are no other units available on the Park. IDA continues to market the Park to potential investors but, in the final analysis, it is the investor who decides where to locate.
