Martin Ferris (Kerry North, Sinn Fein)

Under Standing Order 32, I wish to seek the adjournment of the Dáil to debate the laying off by the BERU plant in Tralee of 80 workers and the impact that will have, particularly at this time of the year, on so many families in the Tralee area and of the need to ensure that the remaining 120 jobs at the factory are protected and that steps are taken to address the overall problem of high unemployment in the town of Tralee and the surrounding north Kerry area.
