In February 2015, the company in question announced job losses and the company said its Dublin facility would now focus on four of its key brands, with a €11.7m investment being made to improve the technology there. As the company and the union(s) have been in negotiations relating to future work practices and have availed of the State’s industrial relations machinery, namely the Workplace Relations Commission and the Labour Court, it would be inappropriate for me to comment further on these negotiations at this point.

I should also point out that Enterprise Ireland is in ongoing contact with the company.
