ROLLS ROYCE MOTOR CARS LIMITED

That this House notes with regret the decision of Rolls Royce Motor Cars Limited to end, with the loss of 500 jobs, the production of coach-built cars at the Mulliner Park Ward assembly and finishing plant in North West London, where cars have been built since 1900; recognises the skill and dedication of the workforce at the plant and the consistently high standards of productivity and quality achieved there; regrets the loss of craft skills and training opportunities that will result from the Company's decision not only to the immediate area but the nation, whose achievement in manufacture has been symbolished by cars built there over many years; and calls upon the Board of Rolls Royce Motor Cars Limited and its parent company Vickers Plc, to reconsider this decision.
