Mr. Eoin McGettigan:

The Deputy is correct in identifying that is the old IFI location and it is rail connected. At the moment we bring in a couple of ships a week that bring in chemicals, which are mixed on that plant and then leave by ship. Therein lies the problem. There is a winding little road over a 400-year old bridge. For us to properly use that site to take capacity out of the city centre, the road will need to be improved. Our plan is that once that road is improved and, therefore, we can get the planning permission to use both rail freight – I have met with Mr. Carr and Jim Meade, his ultimate boss down there to see how that might happen – and road to take bulk cargo out of Cork city centre. It is a key part of our footprint for the future.
