My Department was notified by Enterprise Ireland on the 4th May of the proposed redundancies in Irish Cement, a subsidiary of the CRH group, and my officials have informed me that a voluntary redundancy package is being negotiated with the Unions involved. Irish cement has plants in Platin, County Louth and Castlemungret, County Limerick and the redundancies will be shared across both plants. The company will maintain a core work force in both plants with full employment for the remaining employees. The agency will continue to monitor the situation and keep me up to date on developments.
