On the basis of the information currently available to me, the scale of the redundancy event in question does not appear to meet the minimum criteria prescribed under the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) Regulations to enable an application for co-financing assistance to be made by the Department either on a company specific or on a sectoral basis. The Department continues to monitor all collective redundancies nationally in order to assess whether sustainable EGF applications can be made in those cases where all relevant EGF regulatory criteria are met.
