Enterprise Ireland - Annual Report and Financial Statement 2011

Mr. Frank Ryan:

I am conscious that Cappoquin Chickens is a trading entity and will respond with that in mind. We have been in deep and regular, almost continuous, contact with that company and the new start-up over the past two months. I and my colleagues met the full senior management team last Wednesday. We continue to work with them. We are impressed by the management team there and we continue our interaction with them. We are very conscious that the jobs lost in that part of Waterford could not be replaced in the foreseeable future.
