  • Donegal County Council Welcomes the Approach to the Development Of
    Donegal County Council welcomes the approach to the development of a clear national context for the bioeconomy sector and the economic development potential afforded in relation to sustainable, value-chain development opportunities. Donegal County Council recognises that this must be undertaken in a manner that contributes to the State’s climate change responsibilities and sustains the vitality of the economy of the County and the Region. With the continued focus by Donegal County Council and other development agencies on the sector, the preparation of such a National Policy Statement is timely in the context of emerging global trends and the macro economic factors that are likely to emerge as a result of Brexit. The identification of interlinking value chains in the bio-economy sector can provide sustainable benefits for the region and assist in mitigating the impacts of the UK decision to leave the European Union. Regionally, the bio-economy sector is considered of key significance to the North West, particularity in the context of the collaborative efforts of Donegal County Council and Derry City & Strabane District Council where the spatial contract underpinning the development of the North West City Region by the neighbouring authorities is emphasised as a vital component in building future capacity for Donegal and the North West. The sector is strategically supported in the suite of objectives and policies contained within the County Development Plan 2012-2018 (as varied). The County Development Plan is currently being reviewed and the strategies of the Draft Plan are being examined to ensure that the Plan continues to provide for the sustainable opportunities arising from the bio-economy sector.
