Neither I nor Minister Bruton have met Natrium Limited. However, in the context of preparing my Report to Government on the sale and liquidation of Clerys, I wrote to Natrium Limited on three occasions requesting a meeting to discuss the situation regarding the unexpected liquidation of OCS Operations, the subsequent redundancy of Clery's workers and its plans for the future of the Clery's site. I considered that it was important to have the benefit of hearing the views of Natrium Limited before I finalised my Report. It is regrettable that Natrium Limited was not in a position to meet me within the timeframe available for the preparation of my Report and its submission to Government. Copies of the correspondence with Natrium Limited are available on my Department's website at: .
