Statement from New Ross Sinn Féin regarding the closure of Irish Driver-Harris

"The closure of Irish Driver-Harris is a huge loss to New Ross and further proof, that while this government is committed to pushing low income employment plans like the job bridge scheme, they are unwilling to take the necessary measures to protect established companies and their employees who have served their locality for decades."

"High business rates, lack of credit from banks who were in many cases saved by the taxpayer and a lack of interest in providing investment for struggling established businesses will be the true epitaph of this governments action plan for jobs."
