Foynes port EC assistance
Finnucane asked whether Foynes would receive EC assistance. Wilson said it might, noting that Dublin, Rosslare, Waterford and Cork had been prioritised and that Foynes handled large ships.
The Minister indicated the ports that will be getting priority for EC assistance. Will Foynes be included for that EC assistance?
Comment on this
Foynes may be included for assistance. Again I think there is a question about that further down. I am being got at about Foynes. The major ones that were chosen were the ones I mentioned, Dublin, Rosslare, Waterford and Cork. I know Foynes makes a profit and is catering for very big ships at the moment and there are plans for it.
