Twitter: 140 Irish redundancies confirmed
Tánaiste Leo Varadkar said those affected would "receive a lot of government help".
Speaking at Fine Gael's ard fheis in Athlone, County Westmeath he added: "My thoughts are with the staff who are affected, which is just over a third of the staff in Dublin." He declined to comment on further possible job losses, saying "there haven't been any suggestions, at this stage, that there will be any more".
