asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce whether he is aware that the Irish Gelatines Limited factory at Ballinamuck, Dungarvan, has ceased to operate with a loss of employment for some 60 employees; and whether he has any proposals to enable the factory to reopen operations and ensure the continued employment of these men.

I am aware that the factory referred to has ceased to operate. There are no proposals before me at present for its reopening but any sound proposals for the resumption of industrial activities at the factory would be afforded all assistance within my powers.
