Proceeding contribution from Adam Price (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 November 2005. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Modernising Logistics Provision.

Modernising Logistics Provision

The Minister will understand that today’s statement is a bitter blow to people in the communities represented by the hon. Member for Vale of Glamorgan (John Smith). In respect of the sale of the VC10 business, how will he get right the balance between maximising the return on public investment and securing the work force’s long-term future? Will potential purchasers have to give guarantees about employment levels and rights, and about the long-term continuation of the remaining business at St. Athan?
