Policy and legislative responsibilities for the redundancy and insolvency schemes fall within the remit of the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment but if the Deputy has particular instances she wishes to bring to me, I am happy to have them checked out. As she stated, when a person loses his or her job, it is not a nice place to be. The employees in question are vulnerable and both the Deputy and I will want to ensure they get the full entitlements they are due on foot of the redundancy. If there are specific instances she wishes to bring to my attention, I will be happy to follow up on them with my officials in the first instance. If it needs to go to the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment, I am happy to raise it there as well.
