The management of IDA Ireland's industrial property portfolio is a day-to-day operational matter for the Agency and not one in which I have a function.

I have been informed by IDA that this property was surrendered to its owner on the 11 September, 2006. For commercial reasons, and in order to protect IDA's negotiating position in relation to any similar properties, it is not appropriate for information on the commercial terms agreed by the Agency with the owner regarding the termination the lease to be divulged.
