asked the Minister for Labour when redundancy payments due to former employees of a company (details supplied) in County Galway will be paid.

Payment of redundancy lump sum entitlement due to redundant employees, is the primary responsibility of the employer. I understand that the majority of employees of C-Plast Ltd., Spiddal, County Galway have been paid their redundancy lump sum entitlement and that the remainder will be paid shortly.
