Enterprise Policy
Dail Éireann — 2021-09-15
============================================================

Damien English (FG), Meath West

Again, I would be very happy to engage with Deputy Cahill on that because we are very clear and I know from talking to the local authorities that Joe McGrath, Anthony Fitzgerald and the other team involved in the hub there are very anxious that solutions are found in conjunction with all our Departments and agencies. Under the direction of the regional plans we are asking the IDA, Enterprise Ireland and local authorities to work together. There is a very strong relationship there, so I am of the view that a solution can be found. I am happy to engage with the Deputy off the floor of the House on that and to try to progress a solution because it really is important to me and it could not be any clearer that Tipperary town is a black spot when it comes to employment. That is something we want to address and fix. If there are people there who want to create jobs and expand, they are the easiest wins for us all.
