The Industrial Development Authority's regional industrial plans 1973-77 were published in July, 1972, and have not yet been revised. I understand however that the authority are at present reviewing the plans in the light of progress to date, comments received, and other relevant data, The Shannon Free Airport Development Company Limited in consultation with the IDA are also reviewing their plans for the Mid-West Region. The company published a five-year programme in April, 1969, and supplements to this programme were subsequently prepared and published in July, 1970, and June, 1972.
