Amazon Raises Concerns Over Government Planning
Amazon has warned its plan to create 4 thousand jobs in Ireland could be under threat over poor government planning.
Documents obtained by the Sunday Business Post show the tech giant challenged the government over a perceived lack of support for the digital economy.
Amazon already employs 2,500 people here, but was considering doubling or trebling that according to emails seen by the paper.
However, the company has cited a "number of concerns" including planning permission and the skill level of graduates.
