Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

All-Island Economy: Discussion (Resumed)

1:30 pm

Mr. Jim Boylan:

Our shopping list is the same as that of Dundalk and Newry. We have formed a good alliance and have a good working relationship. We would like to emphasise how bad the position is in north County Louth and the Carlingford Lough area. Money needs to be invested in this hidden gem of a place which could be Ireland's leading tourism attraction if the proper infrastructure were put in place, but this would need the co-operation of the Governments on both sides of the Border.
