Regional Development
Dail Éireann — 2024-10-24
============================================================

Bernard Durkan (FG), Kildare North

I thank the Minister for his exceptionally comprehensive reply and confirming the Government policy and his continued support for the thrust of what he said.
To what degree is cognisance taken of the threats to jobs in the various regions, including the region in which we stand at the moment? To what degree is his Department cognisant of changes in the marketplace and how they might affect different areas? What action is being taken - I know the Minister is active in this regard - to identify those areas, with a view to replenishing when necessary?
