More Than 1 in 10 Cork Commercial Properties Vacant - Buckley


Sinn Féin Cork East


TD Pat Buckley has crit- icised the government for their failure to invest East Cork


in and called for


action in conjunction with the IDA. He was respond- ing to the GeoDirectory Commercial Vacancy Re- port Q4 2017 which found Cork had a commercial vacancy rate


of 11.8%


with nearly three quarters vacant for 3 years or more. Deputy Buckley said; “This report is a com- indictment


plete of the


government and the IDA in terms of their willing- ness or capacity to attract and support business Cork.


in In Youghal in my own


constituency nearly 1 in 5 commercial


sites are


vacant. There are many factors impacting this but given some moderate im- provements in the econo- my over recent years this is unacceptable and needs to be tackled. The


government are


failing rural Ireland. It is clear that


the people of


East Cork are not on their agenda. There is a need to carry


out a full survey of these properties and develop a plan for putting them into use as commercial busi- nesses or repurpose them for social or community enterprises or even hous- ing.”
