Defence Aviation Repairs Agency cuts 550 jobs in Wales

by Personnel Today 24 Mar 2004

Around
550 jobs are to be cut at a Welsh base where military aircraft are repaired and
maintained.

The
jobs will be lost at St Athan in the Vale of Glamorgan, South Wales from a
total workforce of around 2,000.

The
base is run by the Defence Aviation Repair Agency (Dara), which has been the
subject of an operational review for the past few months.

Jack
Dromey, deputy general secretary of the Transport and General Workers Union,
said: "This is a tragedy for St Athan. Our concern this morning is that we
are facing the prospect of the death of Dara by a thousand cuts."
