There were no IDA site visits to Kerry during the first quarter of the year.
That's according to figures provided by Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, Leo Varadkar.
Mr Varadkar was responding to a question from party colleague, Deputy Government Chief Whip and Kerry TD Brendan Griffin.
In a parliamentary question, Deputy Griffin asked for the number of IDA site visits in 2021 in counties Clare, Limerick, Cork and Kerry.
In response, Tánaiste Leo Varadkar stated there were no site visits to Kerry during the first quarter of the year, including digital e-visits.
He said he understands that IDA Ireland organised a virtual site visits for a US company, showcasing Kerry for a potential project last month.
However, Mr Varadkar added verified figures for the second quarter are expected this month.
In the same period, including e-visits, there were 8 site visits in Limerick, 4 in Clare and 3 in Cork.
Leo Varadkar added in his written response that the IDA will target 118 investments for the South-West region, made up of Kerry and Cork, over the next three years.
