Jaguar to Shut One Plant
Jaguar Land Rover has said it will close one of its West Midlands plants by the middle of the next decade.
The firm is considering the closure of either its Castle Bromwich plant in Birmingham or its factory in Solihull.
About 800 new jobs will be created at its Halewood plant on Merseyside, which will start building a new Range Rover.
The company, which is owned by Indian giant Tata, said there would be no net job losses, but unions said they would oppose the plans.
"We are now in a meeting with the company to hear details of their plans," said Bert Hill, regional officer at the GMB union.
