Proceeding contribution from Lembit Opik (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 February 2009. It occurred during Debate on Welsh Affairs.

Welsh Affairs

The Secretary of State is aware that Flowform in Welshpool has shut rather suddenly and Stadco in Llanfyllin is planning to lay off 106 workers, in both cases as a direct result of the companies to which they supply car parts reducing their business. What can the Government do to support those jobs, or does the right hon. Gentleman think that we will just have to find re-employment in other sectors for the individuals who are losing their jobs?
