James Reilly (Dublin North, Fine Gael)

It is very clear that the bona fides of this company have been questionable from day one in terms of staying in this country. Given that it costs the Exchequer €20 million per year to support 1,000 workers who will be on the dole and given that we will be paying SR Technics €15 million in the first year for the redundancy packages, what value has been placed on the company's assets by the company? More important, what amount of money did the Minister offer by way of support in respect of the management buy-out?
