It was clear from Bord na Móna announcements in the first half of the year that there would be a major need for redeployment of staff. Why then did we have to wait until last Monday for the skills audit to start at Mountdillon? Mountdillon and Blackwater have been named but when will the audit happen at the 15 other Bord na Móna sites? What specific steps are being taken by the SEAI to recruit local retrofit contractors in the midland peat counties, which also include counties Galway and Roscommon, to capitalise on the €20 million retrofit plan?
