In this regard, I compliment Fr. Seán Healy who has been to the forefront in advancing the cause of the less well off. In recent days he has indicated that CORI will continue to be part of the new national agreement. It would be damaging for those who have been represented by Fr. Seán Healy and other organisations acting on behalf of the disadvantaged, if those organisations did not get involved with the national partnership and work with employers, unions, the Government and farmers to put a new agreement in place. It is imperative such organisations form a partnership with the Government.
