The future of GKN inquiry
Closed
What the inquiry looked at
“The Committee will be taking evidence from GKN, Melrose Industries and Unite the Union on the future of GKN. It will provide an opportunity for the current owners of this major UK supplier to the automotive and aerospace industries to set out its plans for the company and for Melrose to explain why they are better equipped to run it. The Committee will explore the potential impact of the takeover on jobs, research and development, defence supply chains and for pension holders in the context of the Government's industrial strategy.”
