asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will state whether it has been brought to his attention that a Mr. Percy Casey was dismissed from his employment at the erection of the Electricity Supply Board station at Allenwood, County Kildare; that Mr. Casey is an Irishman who had been working in England where he was a duly admitted member of the appropriate trade union; that, in response to the appeal to skilled Irishmen, he returned home and if, in those circumstances, he will take steps to ensure that Mr. Casey is not deprived of his employment.
