Opposition hits out over job losses
Opposition TDs in the Midlands have lashed out at the Government and the IDA following the loss of almost 200 jobs in Co. Offaly.
Tullamore-based clothing manufacturers Lowe Alpine yesterday announced it was ceasing operations.
According to Fine Gael's Tom Enright the closure is the latest in a long line of job blows in the area.
He added that the Midlands was not fully benefiting from its objective one status.
