I recently met representatives of the auto-turning industry association, the PTMA, and FÁS to discuss the proposed auto-turning centre project. FÁS has recently renewed its offer of assistance to the PTMA in regard to establishing the centre at Ballina. I understand that the PTMA is responding positively to the FÁS offer of assistance and I welcome the industry's decision in this regard.
