Proceeding contribution from Nicholas Winterton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 25 November 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Employment.


Employment

Aearo Technologies, a subsidiary of 3M, based in Poynton in my constituency, is taking 90 jobs to Poland. AstraZeneca, the largest employer in my constituency and essential to this country's economy, is shedding more than 1,250 jobs over three years. The reason that it gives is uncompetitiveness in this country and the importance of the competitive global market. How will the increase in national insurance improve the situation?
