125. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment further to Parliamentary Question No. 156 of 15 September 2020, if the IDA has submitted a revised planning permission application to Mayo County Council; if not, the reason therefor in the context of previous assurances; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25297/20]
View answerSince this issue was last raised by the Deputy in Parliamentary Question no. 156 from September 15th, my Department has been informed by IDA Ireland that they have not submitted a revised planning permission application to Mayo County Council in relation to this site. IDA Ireland is assessing the potential of all its land banks in the context of the Agency’s forthcoming Strategy. A revised planning application with respect to this site will be considered in line with the IDA's commitment to regional development which will be a key objective in this new strategy. IDA Ireland continues to actively market this site to clients considering investing or expanding in County Mayo.
