FIONA HYLSOP MSP COMMENTS ON HALL’S OF BROXBURN

Commenting on the situation at the Vion plant where Finance Secretary
John Swinney has pledged the continued support of the Scottish
Government to the Hall’s of Broxburn taskforce, local SNP MSP Fiona
Hyslop said:

“I have continually pressed Vion to co-operate with credible bidders.

“The discussions are still on-going and I am hopeful, but there is
only a short window of opportunity left.

“I call on all players; Vion, the unions and the Scottish Government
to work together in these final stages to see what is possible.

“The uncertainty is causing real difficulties for the workforce and
their families.”
