At present, there are two occupations by Iceland workers, namely, in the stores in Talbot Street and Coolock. These workers are owed money for work they did. We saw something similar happen with unscrupulous employers such as Debenhams and Clerys. What is going on is what is called in the business "a strategic insolvency". When will the Government - it has been in office for the past three and a half years - bring forward legislation to stop this happening and stop workers being screwed?
