This is not with regard to all of the employees of the National Lottery Company, but to a section of them who were and are contracted to An Post.
Bord Gáis Energy was mentioned and Mr. Watt indicated the end of year in respect of the sale of this asset. I want to ask the same question about the staff in Bord Gáis Energy. What level of consultation, if any, has there been between the Minister, the Department and these workers? Where will they stand? I understand several hundred people are involved and I imagine it is a similar situation to that of the national lottery depending on length of service. Some may wish to stay with the mother company, if I can use this term. How will it work out for these employees?
