IDA Ireland is at an advanced stage of negotiations with the OPW regarding the sale of approximately nine acres of land at Mountrath Road, Portlaoise, to facilitate the Government's proposed decentralisation programme, in respect of decentralising the headquarters of the Department of Agriculture and Food to the town. This proposal will be submitted for approval by IDA Ireland property committee of the board in July 2005.
