Kerry not getting fair share of FDI, says TD
Just 1,874 of the total 30,419 people employed in IDA client companies in the Cork-Kerry region are based in Kerry. In total there are 158 multinational companies based in the region - all but 12 of them in Cork.
Fine Gael backbencher and Kerry South TD Brendan Griffin asked his party colleague, Jobs Minister Richard Bruton, about a dedicated IDA office in his county, “given the poor performance of the agency in respect of the county over the past 15 years”.
