Vauxhall Motors: Luton
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether his Department has had discussions with trade unions on Vauxhall's planned closure of its plant in Luton.
Answered by Sarah Jones
Stellantis announced on 26 November that it was starting a consultation with staff on its plans to consolidate its two UK manufacturing sites into one plant at Ellesmere Port.
The Department is actively engaging with the company and has asked them to share the full details of its plans, including its consultation with workers and trade unions.
We will continue to work closely with Stellantis, as well as trade unions and Luton Borough Council, on the next steps of their proposals.
