I propose to take Questions Nos. 503 to 507, inclusive, 509 and 510 together.

These questions relate to a particular company which has been the subject of an investigation by the labour inspectorate of my Department. The issues raised in these questions are the subject of, or arise from, proceedings currently before the High Court. Accordingly, I am constrained from publishing the report of the investigation until such time as the injunction relating thereto is lifted. I am also constrained from elaborating further on issues which arise in the context of the report.
