View answerThe Report of the Commission for the Economic Development of Rural Areas (CEDRA) was launched yesterday by An Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, in the National Museum of Ireland – Country Life, Turlough Park, Co Mayo, and is available on my Department’s website, http://www.environ.ie/en/Community/RuralDevelopment/PublicationsDocuments/FileDownLoad,37631,en.pdf and the website of the Commission, http://ruralireland.ie/index.php/cedra-reports.
I am committed to working together with my colleagues in Government and other stakeholders to outline a plan to address the issues and challenges detailed in the report. Any input that the Oireachtas might wish to make to that process, perhaps through the Oireachtas Committee structures, would be welcome.
