An advance factory will also be built in Waterford, which I welcome. We spoke about data centres earlier, and there was an emphasis by the Department on looking at specific areas as locations for these centres. I understand a road network and high speed internet must be in place. Do the witnesses try to tie a visit by a company that wishes to build a data centre with an advance factory? Is that the plan, or is the plan to encourage another business into the area?
