Connarty welcomes INEOS Â£7.6M grant

Local MP Michael Connarty welcomed the Â£7.6M RSA grant to INEOS announced today.

“The need for substantial investment in the chemical processes at INEOS were part of the discussions with Jim Murphy, and have been part of my ongoing dialogue with the company as the gases coming to Grangemouth from the North Sea have changed.

I welcome the decision of INEOS to commit to investment in the upgrade and the support being offered through Regional Selective Assistance. This shows how important our campaign to retain RSA for the Grangemouth area was when RSA areas were reviewed by the UK government in 2006. I look forward to further commitments to investment on the INEOS site in the future”
