Bob Ainsworth (Coventry North East, Labour) To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills (1) whether he plans to provide finance to safeguard future manufacturing at London Taxi International; (2) what recent discussions he has had with Coventry and Warwickshire Local Enterprise Partnership on the safeguarding of jobs at London Taxi International; (3) what recent discussions he has had with administrators PricewaterhouseCoopers on future manufacturing at London Taxi International. Michael Fallon (Sevenoaks, Conservative) London Taxi International Ltd (LTI) (as well as Manganese Bronze Holdings plc, Manganese Bronze Services Ltd and Manganese Bronze Property Services Ltd) is currently in administration. This is a commercial matter for the administrators and the Government cannot intervene directly in this process. BIS (Department for Business, Innovation and Skills) officials are being kept abreast of developments, including through contact with the administrators, and we stand ready to engage when possible, if a way forward for manufacturing in the UK is identified. BIS officials are working with local partners including Job Centre Plus, the National Careers Service and local training providers to ensure that those who have been made redundant are aware of the full range of support available to them. BIS Officials are also in regular contact with the Coventry and Warwickshire Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) about its plans to drive future growth and prosperity. The Government have invited the LEP, along with the Leaders of Coventry and Warwickshire local authorities, to submit an expression of interest for a city deal which would include innovative and transformative ideas to boost local growth. |

Maybe the answer is for said firm to make vehicles that people can afford to buy and run, and when those vehicles go wrong have the finances to fix them under warranty. Without that there will be no resurrection for LTI. |
