Director, Craig Thomson, recently attended a parliamentary reception on behalf of Airedale Group, organised by the Chemical Business Association at the Palace of Westminster to highlight the importance of the UK chemical industry, the challenges it currently faces and how important the industry is to supporting economic growth in the UK.
While at the Houses of Parliament, Craig also spoke with Sir Julian Smith MP, Member of Parliament for Skipton and Ripon, to discuss local issues facing businesses in the region and the impact of REACH on the chemical supply industry.
Craig explains: “We have been writing to our political leaders about increasing visibility of the chemical supply chain in the government’s industrial discussions, gaining clarity over the UK’s regulatory framework and the importance of encouraging fresh talent into the industry.
“So, this was a great chance to discuss these issues face-to-face with industry peers and government representatives”.
