Gerry Adams (Louth, Sinn Fein)

I welcome the Taoiseach's willingness to intervene with KPMG. I may return to him regarding Diageo workers. The company is a thriving multinational company that is to lay off up to 250 workers. The wealth of their talent and skill in the brewery in Dundalk is being lost.

Has the job stimulus package been discussed by the Cabinet sub-committee on economic recovery and jobs? It is the only way we will get people out of this crisis. Almost half a million people are on the dole. I believe we have the highest rate of youth unemployment.
