Brian O'Shea (Waterford, Labour)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to debate the following urgent matter: the serious economic implications for Dungarvan and the west Waterford area generally and for Waterford city of the announcement by Waterford Crystal of the proposed closure of its Dungarvan plant, the further job losses at Kilbarry, the need for the Government to enter into immediate discussions with the management to determine if any of the jobs can be saved, the need for the industrial development agencies to give priority to seeking alternative projects for the area and the need for the Government to expedite the promised decentralisation of Ordnance Survey Ireland to Dungarvan.
