Written Answers. - County Galway Construction Projects.
All the construction projects funded by my Department during 1982 are being undertaken by the Industrial Development Authority.

The projects include site development works at Portumna, Tuam, Gort and the Parkmore Industrial Estate, Galway. Construction work on the following projects will also be undertaken: (a) Cluster unit (8 x 8,000 sq.ft.) on UCG Campus; (b) modifications to CR Baird factory at Parkmore Industrial Estate; (c) cluster unit at Tuam (2 x 3,250 sq.ft.); (d) refurbishing the former Crown Control Factory (Galway), and (e) modifications to IDA offices in Galway city.
