I am sorry to hear about those job losses and my immediate thoughts are with workers and families affected, as I know are the Deputy's. I will of course work with him on this, as we have done in the past. I think the Minister for State, Deputy Higgins, was in Drogheda this week with regard to the regional enterprise plans. We remain committed to doing everything we can to support the town. I make the point that the benefit of the DART line runs both ways because it also has an opportunity to bring workers and investment into Drogheda.
