Thamesteel Redundancies

EDM number 2663 in 2010-12, proposed by Gareth Thomas on 30/01/2012.

That this House notes the devastating impact to the Isle of Sheppey and surrounding community of the announcement of 350 redundancies at Thamesteel in Sheerness; further notes that Thamesteel workers have not been paid for the month of January and were only given 48 hours warning of redundancy; and therefore calls on the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills to meet representatives of the Thamesteel workers and the trade union Community in order to support the process of finding a new buyer for the site.

This motion has been signed by a total of 24 MPs.
