The owners cannot zone anything and the Deputy and I know that. It is up to the elected members. It is zoned for film production. There is another film production centre down the road from it. I see that as offering huge potential for a cluster for the film industry. As the Deputy and I know, the amount of interest in increasing that industry is tremendous and many more people are coming in from abroad along with a lot more indigenous Irish industry. Enterprise Ireland has an investment portfolio of €300 million and 2,000 investments. It has investments of circa €30 million per annum and sells shares worth €25 million. These are all confidential transactions. I cannot give that information because it would be wrong of me to do so. Enterprise Ireland's accounts detail how all of its funds are appropriated or otherwise. It issues an annual report every year.
