Vol. 521 No. 4

Written Answers. - Decentralisation Programme.

Brian O'Shea

Ceist:

33 Mr. O'Shea asked the Minister for Public Enterprise the proposals, if any, she has to decentralise part of her Department to the Waterford constituency; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [17059/00]

The Government has, of yet, taken no decision on a new programme of decentralisation. The Minister for Finance has been in contact with myself and other Ministers recently with a view to the Government being in a position to take decisions on a new programme by the end of July. Until such time as the Government has had an opportunity to consider the matter fully it would be premature of me to comment on the likelihood of any particular centre being included in the new programme.
