Angela re-acts to Oughtibridge factory closure
Friday, 24 May 2013

‘I am saddened by the news that the manufacturing facility at Oughtibridge is under threat, with 161 jobs potentially on the line. 

I am writing to the company to ask for reassurances relating to redeployment, redundancy and support for those affected in finding alternative employment.

‘Due to the abolition of Yorkshire Forward by the Tory-led government, we no longer have an immediate source of support available when situations like this occur, to help with redeployment and finding alternative uses for the site if necessary.  I am, however, writing to both the City Council and the Sheffield City Region, as I think it is imperative that every effort should be made to salvage whatever we can from this difficult situation.

Expenses

In addition to their salary, MPs are allowed to claim various expenses to enable them carry out duties on behalf of constituents

These expenses cover things such as running offices in the constituency and Westminster, the paying of staff, as well as claiming for a second home, which is a necessary expense for many MPs who have to spend part of the week in Westminster.

Since the last General Election the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority monitors and sets MPs expenses. They regularly publish Members expenses online on a 3 monthly basis. For more details go here>>.
