Question 210: To ask the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment if the lands earmarked for an industrial park (details supplied) in County Galway have been purchased from Teagasc; if the contract has been signed; if this land is in the ownership of the IDA; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The management of IDA Ireland's industrial property portfolio, including the purchase of land is a day-to-day operational matter for the agency and not a matter in which I have a function.

I understand from IDA Ireland that the agency is in discussion with Teagasc regarding the purchase of lands at Mellows College, Athenry, Co Galway. As of yet no contracts have been signed but both parties are optimistic that contracts will be completed in the near future.
