I am based in Donegal where there is serious worry across a range of sectors but I know from speaking to colleagues it is the same around the Border. There was a 50:50 policy of regional development with the Industrial Development Authority Ireland, IDA Ireland, which was scrapped and there is now a focus on Dublin, Cork, Galway and Limerick. I would like to get a sense of IDA Ireland and Enterprise Ireland’s focus on rebalancing that, particularly for the Border counties which are most affected by this.
