48. Deputy Claire Kerrane asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the engagement that his Department has had with a business (details supplied) following its closure to ensure that jobs can be replaced and employment can continue in the rural community; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45163/22]
View answerI understand that no job losses and/or redundancies are expected at this time due to the closure of part of this company's business. My Department officials have been in contact with Enterprise Ireland which has confirmed that approximately half of the jobs will be transferring to another company.
Redeployment opportunities for remaining employees are also being made available across the full spectrum of the remaining business.
Enterprise Ireland are continuing to work with the company to discuss what assistance can be made available and what initiatives would be most appropriate for the company in the future.
