On 11 June this year the European Commission...

Order of Business (30 Sep 2014)

Enda Kenny: ...Finance is giving very careful consideration to that matter. It is true that 166,000 people work for multinationals with operations in Ireland. I had the privilege of opening a section of the Apple plant in Cork, at which an extraordinary number of very highly qualified people work. The same applies at other locations throughout the country. We should not forget this. It is...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed): Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (17 Jun 2014)

Enda Kenny: ...difficult decisions. When Deputy Adams mentions companies paying the tax rate that applies here, it is important to state we do not have the brass-plate system in Ireland. For instance, I visited Apple in California last week. When one goes to its ultra-modern facility in Cork where over 4,000 highly-skilled people are employed one can understand the contribution it is making to the...

The Commission has given notice of launching an investigation into a number of countries, the Netherlands and Luxembourg and, in the case of Ireland, in respect of Apple.

It is a fabulous entity employing many thousands of people who have been there for many years, as Deputy Martin noted. I met with the principals of Apple last week in California. They have been very happy with their productivity, track record and the workforce in Cork and want to be there for very many years....

Enda Kenny: ...problems, of creating opportunities for jobs and employment and of continuing to make Ireland competitive and attractive for foreign direct investment by organisations such as Mylan, PayPal, Apple and all those which have invested and created, and continue to create, serious job numbers here. In addition, it will pertain to a real concern shared by everyone, that is, stimulating the...

Official Engagements (1 May 2012)

Enda Kenny: I assume that when the Deputy speaks to the young people who will be employed in Paypal in their own town and country, he does not find it bizarre. That is what we are at with the likes of Apple, Mylan, Allergan, PayPal or any of the other companies. The Minister responsible for jobs is in the United States now speaking to representatives of 20 companies about continued investment here and...

Leaders' Questions (6 Oct 2010)

Enda Kenny: ...debacle, would be the last one, and that there would be accountability and transparency. It is ironic that the Minister for Health and Children has actually commended the HSE on finding the rotten apple in the barrel yet again. This is a scandalous situation. There is no accountability and no transparency, and nobody is being brought to book, yet last week we saw a picture of a young...

Ryan Report on the Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse: Motion (11 Jun 2009)

Enda Kenny: ...repent his actions and help? No. Instead, we have been told that the brother jumped on the boy "like he was a bag of potatoes". Yesterday, I spoke with a man outside Leinster House who stole an apple on Moore Street when he was nine years of age. He was sent to Upton and was beaten and raped repeatedly for six years. We should talk to him and try to understand from where he is coming....
