The recent High Court appointment of a provisional liquidator to this company involved a very specific legal process. I do not consider that it would be appropriate for either my Department or IDA Ireland to engage with the liquidator on the issue referred to in the question. My focus and that of the IDA is on finding a new potential investor for this premises and thereby to pursue employment opportunities for the Suir Pharma employees. IDA Ireland are fully engaging with the liquidator in relation to pursuing new investment opportunities for this site.
