Minister of State at the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government

My Department has no role in the internal operations of any private organisations and, therefore, does not have a role in relation to staff or employment matters, which are for the Board of the company, as the employer, to manage.

In relation to the details supplied, discussions between my Department and the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform are on-going. There is also on-going engagement with the Attorney General's Office in relation to the legal issues arising. Consideration of the matter will be finalised in light of the outcome of these consultations.
