O’Keeffe insists Cork docklands project a ‘priority’

THE regeneration of Cork’s sprawling docklands remains a government priority, the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Innovation insisted yesterday.

The project will be discussed by the Cabinet in early September — the first meeting after the summer recess, Batt O’Keeffe revealed.

He was reacting to Fine Gael criticism of Dublin bias in the €39 billion Infrastructure Investment Priorities 2010-2016, announced on Monday.
