Castleisland is only 11 miles from Tralee and has a large number of unemployed. Industry is badly needed and there is an IDA factory which could be utilised.

The IDA have 18 acres there which are designated for industry. I know they will do everything they can to get the land used for the purpose for which it was acquired.
