Following the news that Everest has entered into administration placing over 100 jobs in Rhondda Cynon Taf at risk, Plaid Cymru regional Senedd Member Heledd Fychan has expressed her concern and urged the Welsh Government to provide support to those affected.
Speaking in response to the news, Ms Fychan said: “This is devastating news for those affected, especially coming so soon after hundreds of jobs were lost in the same area following the closure of UK Windows and Doors.
“I’ve tabled a question to the Cabinet Secretary, asking how Welsh Government has supported the company and also what support will be available to those affected.
“Alternative employment is hard to come by in the area, and many people are struggling to make ends meet. The Welsh Government must take action to ensure more employment opportunities are created, and establish if any other businesses are struggling and at risk of closure so steps can be taken to prevent further losses.”
