I am informed that the HP site is not in IDA Ireland ownership. I understand, from the IDA, the property was placed on the open market in July 2017 and that HP has engaged agents to handle its sale.

However, the IDA is engaging closely with HP about the facility and the Agency is aware of contact between prospective buyers and the company. The IDA will continue to draw the attention of both existing and potential clients - whether in Ireland or overseas - to the availability of the property.
