The industrial filter section of the plant is being retained and I hope Pall will consider adding some other line, if it is not possible for it to restore the line it has shifted to Mexico and Puerto Rico. I note the announcement today in Waterford that a software plant is to be shifted to India. It is perhaps a sign of some of the dangers we face. Nonetheless, industries need access to the European market and Ireland still has one of the most competitive bases, both in terms of taxation and costs.
