‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Natural Gas. First food plant gas connection
Summary
Asked when a food plant would first receive gas, the Minister said a contract had been signed but the plant still needed to satisfy the board; he gave no deadline.
Could he tell us in respect of the food manufacturing industry when the first food manufacturing plant in Ireland will get natural gas?
Comment on this
A food manufacturing plant and Bord Gáis Éireann have signed a contract. It is a matter for the food manufacturing plant to satisfy the board. The Deputy is aware that putting deadlines on these things is not in the best interests of the Government where contracts have to be negotiated and the best price for gas has to be achieved.
