David Stanton (Cork East, Fine Gael)

Is the Minister saying the only early warning system his Department depends on comes from corporations themselves? In March, April, May and June when Amgen products were experiencing all kinds of problems, did no one in his Department alert him to the problems within the company or to the possibility that the project might not go ahead? Is he aware that these problems were spoken of throughout east Cork where everyone was saying Amgen was gone? Did no one in his Department raise with him the possibility that the project might not go ahead?
