I propose to take Questions Nos. 501 and 502 together.

I understand from Údarás na Gaeltachta that it currently has 17 sites available in the Donegal Gaeltacht for use or purchase by potential investors. These sites, which have a combined total area of 162.77 acres, are located in various Gaeltacht areas within the county.

Údarás na Gaeltachta has also confirmed that, during 2014, it engaged with 15 entrepreneurs/businesses who undertook site visits to view Údarás property in the Donegal Gaeltacht. These entrepreneurs were made up of local, national and international individuals and companies.
