Dick Roche (Wicklow, Fianna Fail)

On behalf of the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, Deputy Martin, I assure the House that the State development agencies, including the local county enterprise board, under the auspices of the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment, will continue to work closely together and with local interests in promoting Youghal and the surrounding area for further job creation and investment. I will pass on the point the Deputy made about decentralisation of the NRA, which is under the aegis of the Minister for Transport, Deputy Cullen. I will also pass on the points made about gas supply and Altana Pharma to the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, Deputy Martin.
