Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

As the Deputy will be aware, a court-appointed examiner is working through the examinership process at the moment. Workers have rights in that process and we need to ensure they are respected. A complaints procedure under the Workplace Relations Commission, WRC, can also be activated. I am limited in what I can say due to the ongoing court process.

However, I am obviously concerned about how the Iceland workers have been treated. We are following that closely, as is the Minister of State, Deputy Richmond, who has been the person involved from my Department.
