A new application for planning is to be submitted by the IDA for an industrial facility on the Sligo Road in Ballina.

That’s according to Mayo Fianna Fail deputy Dara Calleary.

Planning on the existing site has expired, and deputy Calleary told Midwest News this morning that he hopes the new plan will re-assess the needs of any potential investor at the site, that has been in the IDA’s ownership for some time now.
