As the Deputy knows, I have held meetings with public representatives and with representatives of the Golden Vale Society and the trade unions concerned, at which the proposed redundancies at Lansdowne and other Golden Vale premises were discussed. Agreement was reached that there would be direct talks between the society and the unions with a view to seeking a satisfactory solution. I understand that these talks are still in progress.
