As the Minister knows, it is well over three months since there was the threat of serious job losses at Mondelez-Cadbury in Coolock. We had a meeting in his Department and an inter-agency group was supposed to be set up, to be led by Enterprise Ireland. However, I found out from workers in Liberty Hall last Friday that e-mails were not being responded to, that no meetings had been held and that the momentum behind the inter-agency group, such as it was, was to find alternative jobs rather than to save the jobs that were under pressure. As the Minister knows, the workers have tried to come forward with mutually beneficial alternatives to Mondelez-Cadbury management, but they have received no assistance whatsoever from him or his Department.
