The new owners of Clerys, Natrium Limited, have agreed to meet the Minister of State for Business and Employment, Ged Nash, to discuss the liquidation of the department store last Friday.
Earlier this week Mr Nash wrote to Deirdre Foley and John Skelly of Natrium outlining the Government's concerns about the liquidation, which has resulted in the loss of up to 460 jobs.
He also sought a meeting with the directors to discuss those concerns.
It is understood Natrium responded to the minister's letter late yesterday evening saying they were happy to meet him.
They also said they would continue to cooperate with the provisional liquidators, Kieran Wallace and Eamonn Richardson of KPMG.
A spokesperson for the minister said he welcomed the company's agreement to meet him, adding he has many questions to put to them.
However, Mr Nash also reiterated his previous call for Natrium to meet the workers and give concessions to those affected by the liquidation.
