What discussions it has had and with whom relating to the closure of the Drambuie factory, Kirkliston prior to this announcement of closure…

There were no recent discussions between the Scottish Executive, its agencies and Drambuie prior to the closure announcement. Drambuie have now undertaken to keep the Scottish Executive aware of any developments relating to the closure of their factory. In the event of a redundancy situation, support will be provided to those affected in accordance with the principles set out in our PACE (Partnership Action for Continuing Employment) document but Drambuie have made it clear that it is too early at this stage to say if there will be job losses.
