100 Jobs Offered To DVA Coleraine Staff
Up to 100 jobs could be offered to staff in DVA Coleraine, following the decision to centralise vehicle registration and licensing services in Swansea.
Social Development Minister Nelson McCausland said: "I have arranged for officials to meet with their counterparts as soon as this Friday with a view to exploring potential areas of work that could support up to 100 posts on a short term basis through to December this year which would be located in Coleraine.
"The staff affected by this decision are in a very real and very difficult position. I would hope to be in a position to provide the details of these opportunities within the next few weeks. The position in Coleraine is a priority for all Departments and one that I know all my Ministerial colleagues and I are committed in trying where possible to find solutions."
