85 Deputy Seymour Crawford asked the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the efforts he has made through his Department, or a State agency related to it, to encourage industry into the Border regions, in particular Counties Cavan and Monaghan; his views on whether, in recent years particularly with the successful settlement in Northern Ireland, in the case of County Monaghan in particular, with the virtually completed restructuring of the N2 to Monaghan Town and with the provision of leisure facilities and good hotels there is no excuse that towns such as Monaghan, Clones, Ballybay or Castleblayney should not be as attractive as anywhere else in the country for high tech employment; if he will provide a commitment to re-energise the organisations to ensure that the Border regions receive a fair opportunity in view of the historic deficit in this area; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
