My final question relates to the attack on Mr. Kevin Lunney from Fermanagh, who was abducted and dumped on this side of the Border in a shocking and deplorable attack in the past 24 hours. This seems to be a trend of attacks against Quinn Industrial Holdings. There is concern in the local community that there have been no arrests and there has been no follow-through, from a public perspective, about the serious number of incidents that have occurred. What is being done from a cross-Border perspective with the PSNI in ensuring that these thugs, who are intimidating employees and workers, are brought to justice? To see anyone attacked, abducted and assaulted in that way is truly shocking and deplorable. We need follow-through and a commitment that this will receive absolute priority. It is shocking for that man to be left in that way.
