I raise the issue of the loss of 307 PayPal jobs, 172 in Dundalk and 135 in Ballycoolin, which will kick in from 27 June. What was the Government's engagement before this shocking news was broken this morning to workers and their families? Promises have been made by PayPal of good packages. This needs to be ensured. We still do not have clarity as to whether these jobs are being relocated. There needs to be continuing engagement to ensure supports and packages and there is a huge job to be done by the Government and IDA Ireland to engage with the company to ensure its commitment to Dundalk and Ireland.
