"The successful implementation of the announcement today is hoped to target 28,000 additional jobs for the region by 2020 - an increase of 10-15% employment growth.
"I am particularly pleased that the announcement will greatly benefit my own area of Louth and will include an increase in the number of lDA investments who will build a range of property solutions including advance facilities in Dundalk with expected completion in 2018.
"The IDA and Enterprise Ireland will also work with industry to progress a Digital Payments Cluster along the M1 corridor.
"Louth has suffered greatly in the economic downturn but now as we see an improvement in the economy I believe we can build on the strength of being strategically along the M1 corridor, midway between Dublin and Belfast with good access to ports and airports making it very enticing for companies to invest in the area alongside other successful companies who have located here including PayPal, eBay, Vesta ,Yapstone and State Street."
