Senator Ulick Burke referred to Ballinasloe, while Senator John Phelan spoke about Castlecomer. I am going to refer to Tipperary, where two thirds of the jobs at the PAL factory were recently lost. When we went to the factory after the announcement was made, a trade union representative – a Labour Party councillor who worked there – told us that at least the redundancy payments were reasonably generous and that they would not be an issue. That is important because the objective in these situations is for communities and workforces to pull themselves up on to their feet as quickly as possible. It is also important for the State agencies concerned to come together to find promptly replacement employment for Ballinasloe, Castlecomer, Tipperary and other areas. Messy situations should be avoided.
