Outokumpu and the Bula takeover

Summary

Reynolds sought to know whether the Government had discussed Outokumpu’s takeover of Bula Mines. The Ceann Comhairle and Minister ruled that this was separate from the smelter question, and no answer was given.

Have any discussions on the matter taken place between the Government and Outokumpu in relation to the takeover of Bula by Outokumpu?
