asked the Minister for Industry, Commerce and Tourism the up-to-date position in regard to the establishment of an industry in the town of Bantry, County Cork.

The Industrial Development Authority is prepared to support, with its full range of incentives, any suitable industrial project which may be proposed for location in Bantry.

The Authority is continuing its efforts to secure a site which would be suitable for industrial development and I understand that a number of possible sites are currently under examination. Plans for the construction of the 12,000 sq.ft. cluster factory announced for Bantry in May 1979 will proceed as soon as a suitable site has been acquired.
