Question 191: To ask the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation if a company (details supplied) still legally exists when all of its staff have been made redundant; if the company still exists, is it paying into a pension scheme; the implications for existing pension scheme members; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The legal existence of a company is not governed or affected by the redundancy of its employees. Current information in relation to the status of companies is publicly available on the companies register at www.cro.ie.

I have no function in relation to the pension arrangements of the company concerned. The legislation in relation to the regulation of pension schemes is a matter for my colleague the Minister of Social Protection.
