Dara Calleary (Mayo, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I would like to know the Minister's investment plans for County Mayo. The county's joblessness figures have not improved at the same rate as in the rest of the country. County Mayo is home to some of the world's leading companies, yet in recent years it has not had a new IDA Ireland investment. There was no investment in yesterday's announcement of €29 million for regional enterprise development funds, in spite of applications from the county. We need a very frank discussion about the Department's agencies' plans for County Mayo.
