I understand that it is intended to seek a new owner who will operate a food production activity at the facility in question. The Industrial Development agencies, particularly Enterprise Ireland which has responsibility for the food sector, are providing assistance in this regard. A detailed site and facility appraisal has been received by Enterprise Ireland and this information will be communicated to potential purchasers. At present, the agency is working to identify and support parties with an interest in purchasing the site and conducting business there.
