Two Industrial Development agencies under the aegis of my Department — IDA Ireland and Enterprise Ireland — together with the local County Enterprise Board (CEB) are responsible for industrial development in the area in question. The agencies and the CEB are making every effort to assist job creation in the area. Job opportunities can arise in a range of companies both within and outside of the remit of the State agencies. Accordingly, I am not in a position to comment on what might happen in a particular area in the future. Job seekers should of course keep in close contact with their local FÁS office which can provide information and supports in this regard.
