EEF Chief Exec welcomes snap election
18 April 2017
Commenting on the decision by the Prime Minister to call a general election on 8th June, Terry Scuoler, Chief Executive of EEF, the manufacturers’ organisation, said: “Industry will welcome the Prime Minister’s decision to seek a clear mandate. The last year has been one of considerable uncertainty which, if it had gone on unchecked, would have risked hampering future investment.
“We have significant negotiations to undertake with our partners in the rest of Europe and, doing this with a fresh and stable mandate from the country can only provide greater certainty about the future direction of travel for policy, and the potential to seek the best deal possible for the UK.”
