Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade

I am aware of the situation to which the Deputy refers.  I regret the closure of BD Foods, and the job losses that will result.  The matter is one for my colleague, the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection, and I have asked that it be brought to her attention.
