Rosslare EuroportThe Department of Transport has tendered for external consultants to carry out a strategic review of Rosslare Europort, which is currently part of Irish Rail.
The advisers will be asked to review the port’s current commercial and operational efficiency and advise on an appropriate ownership structure.
This could include local authority involvement or some form of privatisation. It is understood the Government would prefer to retain Rosslare in State ownership, given its importance to tourism and trade.
