TLT debts to farmers and marts

Summary

Deputy Naughten raises substantial debts reportedly owed by TLT in Mullingar to farmers and marts and asks about the credit guarantee amendment legislation. The Tánaiste has no publication date but will seek a response from the responsible Minister.

There is precedence for a Minister to engage with a receiver. As we know, TLT in Mullingar has many outstanding debts to farmers and marts. When will we see the credit guarantee (amendment) Bill? I understand enough money is due to the company to meet those liabilities.

Comment on this

I do not have a date for the publication of that Bill.

Can the Tánaiste have a word with the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Marine?

I will try to get a reply for the Deputy.

Perhaps the Deputy could table a parliamentary question.

The TLT issue is a huge issue coming up to Christmas for many people who are owed money.

I will ask for a reply. I think it is a Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation Bill. I will ask the Minister to reply directly to the Deputy.
