Harney gives assurance on jobs priority for Donegal

IN the aftermath of the Fruit of the Loom jobs’ bombshell nearly six years ago, Tanaiste Mary Harney offered words of comfort to the 1,500 facing the dole.

Priority attention, she emphasised, would be “focused on Donegal as a prime, competitive and attractive location for job creating investment.”

The words were as feeble as the State’s response to the Fruit of the Loom disaster.
