asked the Minister for Industry and Energy the number of IDA advance factories built in County Donegal over the past five years; their location; the number that have been occupied; the number of jobs provided in each; if he will list the number of contractors who built the factories; the contract price; and the number of tenders received for each factory.
Written Answers. - County Donegal Advance Factories.
649.
I am informed by the Industrial Development Authority that seven advance factories and two small industry cluster units totalling 172,400 sq. ft. have been provided in County Donegal since 1978.
A total of 100 jobs have been created to date in these factories. I propose to circulate details of the location, size and occupancy status of these factories in the form of a tabular statement. This statement also gives details of the main contractor and number of tenders received for each factory.
Information concerning contract prices is confidential. Following is the statement:
