I am asking where are the Minister's agencies in Roscommon, east Galway, Leitrim and Longford? It is not happening in those areas. I acknowledge the programme for Government states the Government would create 155,000 jobs outside of Dublin but our region is being destroyed because we do not have jobs. If one looks at towns such as Ballaghaderreen, Castlerea, Strokestown, Cortober in Carrick-on-Shannon and Roscommon town, there are units ready to be used. I believe the Government is not engaging.

IDA Ireland had one or two visits to Roscommon.
