WQ81597 (e) Tabled on 20/11/2020

What assessment has the Welsh Government made of the impact on jobs in Wales of fashion chains Peacocks and Jaeger going into administration?

Answered by Minister for Economy, Transport and North Wales | Answered on 26/11/2020

I am aware of the disappointing news that Peacocks and Jaeger went into administration last week.  The businesses are still currently trading and the administrators are in active discussions with potential buyers so it is inappropriate for me to comment further at this stage.

As the position develops, we will of course be working with the companies and our partner organisations, such as Careers Wales and Jobcentre Plus, to ensure that any employees living in Wales and affected by redundancy are provided with information, advice, and guidance about the support available to them.
