Disappointment at docklands exclusion

DISAPPOINTMENT was expressed in Cork last night at the failure to provide any financial incentives in the budget for the development of the Cork docklands.

Cork Chamber called it a “missed opportunity” by the Minister of Finance to exclude the docklands development project as a beneficiary of this year’s budget.

Cork Chamber president Joe Gantly said he was expressing “acute disappointment that the minister did not commit to the inclusion of targeted financial incentives in the budget for the development of the Cork docklands”.
