Data on IDA Ireland site visits is collated on a county-by-county basis only. Information on the number of site visits to specific locations in individual counties is therefore unavailable. IDA Ireland does not also release details of the specific itineraries of potential investors on grounds of client confidentiality and commercial sensitivity. Enterprise Ireland does not conduct site visits.
The table sets out details on the number of IDA Ireland site visits to counties Louth, Meath, Monaghan and Cavan from 2015 to Q1 2018.
County | 2015 | 2016 | 2017 | Q1 2018 |
---|---|---|---|---|
Louth | 20 | 24 | 22 | 6 |
Cavan | 0 | 2 | 2 | 0 |
Meath | 7 | 8 | 3 | 1 |
Monaghan | 2 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
