I am happy to inform the Deputy that arrangements for an enterprise audit to review the use of existing and redundant agricultural buildings and manufacturing plants in rural areas are currently being made.

The Department of Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs will coordinate with the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment and the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food being the Departments with the lead functions in these areas.
