County  Kerry’s COVID-19 Economic Recovery Plan 2021

County Kerry’s COVID-19 Economic Recovery Plan 2021 has been developed in response to the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic and provides an overall framework for the economic development of the County in the short to medium term.

The Plan focuses on the broad themes of Digital Transformation, the Transition to a Low Carbon Economy, building on Kerry’s Natural Resources and the necessary Training and Education to support these structural changes.

The Economic Recovery Plan for Kerry 2021 recognises the strength of the Screen Industries and the growth potential in the county. It outlines actions to “attract, support & develop the Screen Sector in the county & ensure Kerry’s competitiveness in attracting film opportunities”. This focus should also be reflected in the Economic Growth section of the County Development Plan.
