Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 28 June 2023
29. Deputy Johnny Guirke asked the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications if he can outline what meetings, if any, took place between a company (details supplied), Government Ministers and a trade union following the revelation on 11 May 2023 that the company was experiencing difficult trading conditions; if so, the general substance of these meetings; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31560/23]
View answerI have not met with the company concerned since 11 May 2023. My officials have been in ongoing contact with the company in relation to regulatory matters and, since 11 May 2023, they have met with the company twice - earlier this week to discuss ongoing regulatory issues and last week in the course of conducting a standard twice annual mine inspection.
Neither I nor my officials have met with the trade union referred to in the Question concerning the company since 11 May 2023.
