Kilkenny Design Workshops Limited ceased to operate in 1989.

The day to day issues for the company were matters for the Board of Directors and the management of the Kilkenny Design Workshops Limited. The settlement of debts incurred by Kilkenny Design Workshops was a matter for the company itself and the Minister had no statutory powers to provide a guarantee to the company’s creditors.

Kilkenny Design Workshops Limited was dissolved under a Members Voluntary Liquidation in 2002, and any liabilities were addressed in the context of the liquidation process.
