Job Losses 17. Mr. Michael To ask the Secretary of State for Defence whether following recent events at Brawdy and Trecwn he will review the way in which the Ministry of Defence communicates with employees when a decision involving closure or job losses is taken. Mr. Kenneth Carlisle All such decisions are handled strictly in accordance with the Department's consultation agreement with the trade unions. Since the way employees are informed of such decisions forms a part of that agreement, it would be wrong to review these procedures now.
