Transition Team Leader Ron Smith |
The transition team set up by the Dexter Government following the closure of the Bowater Mersey paper mill in June will hold the first of a pair of public meetings this evening. Team members are looking for public ideas and input into the process of finding replacement industries and jobs. They're looking to hear from people and businesses who have been impacted by the Bowater closure. Transition leader Ron Smith tells us
smaller industries, reliant on forestry, will likely be the key to the industrial future of the area. Tonight's session begins at 7 o'clock at the Best Western Plus in Liverpool. Another meeting will be held Thursday night at the Days Inn in Bridgewater, also beginning at 7pm.
