Martin Ferris (Kerry North, Sinn Fein)

I thank the Minister for her reply. The Minister is aware there was a disagreement between the union and Greencore with regard to the interpretation of the Labour Court decision. This was subsequently clarified by the Labour Court. However, because the clarification did not suit it, Greencore has effectively ignored it. Not alone that, the Minister is part of a Government that retains a public share in the company and has allowed this to happen. The Labour Court is there for a purpose, but its adjudication has been totally ignored which is wrong.
