Crowe said that 200,000 Irish people have emigrated abroad  over the last three years looking for work as the prospects at home get  worse.<\/p>\n<p>Deputy Se\u00e1n Crowe said:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast week Kerrygold announced 800 jobs with a further 400 in construction and Paddy Power announced a further 800 jobs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese jobs are to be welcomed and demonstrate the potential for Irish enterprise. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Unfortunately  these new jobs coincide with the closures of Olhausen plants with the  loss of 160 jobs. The particular jobs at these plants can be directly  linked to the collapse in the domestic market and the reduction of  consumer spending power.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast year the Taoiseach told us that  the Action Plan for Jobs would create 100,000 additional jobs by 2016.  His particular jobs plan is a dud and is clearly not working.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Over  the past year 33,400 net jobs have been lost to the economy and 87,000  people have emigrated. That brings to 200,000 people over the last three  years leaving our shores looking for work.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKerrygold and Paddy  Power are a glimmer of hope and demonstrate what Irish business can  achieve in the face of adverse economic conditions and policies.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We  believe that more can be achieved by policies that will put job  creation to the fore, that build economic growth and the support Irish  enterprise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe that the potential exists in Ireland for  many more vibrant companies like Paddy Power and Kerrygold. We believe  that with the right policies, good products such as Olhausen could and  should be supported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need\u00a0 to build on the strength of Irish  enterprise and demonstrate that with the political will and using monies  available in the pulic and private sector\u00a0 we can deliver a stimulus  package that can deliver tens of thousands of additional jobs over the  next few years.\u201d<\/span><\/span><strong><br \/><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New jobs\u00a0 welcomed but 33,400 lost in last yearDublin South West representative Se\u00e1n Crowe TD\u00a0 has welcomed\u00a0 the jobs expansion last week by Kerrygold and Paddy Power and said it was a welcome news.
