Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael)

It is incorrect to state the company is losing €10,000 a day. However, I would like the Deputy to send me the information he has and I will look into it because we cannot have a situation where the board of a company is behaving in one way when it expects its staff and others to make sacrifices to save the company. I had to deal with a similar issue in the Dublin Airport Authority and I will deal with it as well in Dún Laoghaire if need be. I ask the Deputy to forward the information because I want to know it.

The Deputy claims €12,000 a year to travel between Dún Laoghaire and Dublin. I am not sure how much the train costs but it is much less than that.
