JAGUAR LAND ROVER: POLITICIANS, UNIONS AND WORKFORCE MUST PULL TOGETHER SAYS BURT

September 25, 2009 2:11 PM

Commenting on the announcement that JLR will be consolidating the two midlands plants into one plant, local MP Lorely Burt said:

'TATA has already shown great commitment to making JLR work and has invested heavily. Then fact that no jobs losses are involved is an extremely important commitment to workers, their families and the midlands economy.

I'll be doing all I can to work with the unions, the workforce and the company to pull together and get the best possible framework to ensure the future success and prosperity for the company.'

On which plant will close, she commented: 'Obviously I hope Solihull will remain. Land Rover is a world leading brand, and until last year was making record sales and profits. Solihull is the home of Land Rover and the engine of the entire company.'

    If you are a resident of the Solihull constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
