uin	124
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/01/2020 answer text <p>We are in close contact with Boeing as well as key UK suppliers. Boeing has confirmed that their decision to temporarily suspend 737 production is the least disruptive to the long-term health of their production system and supply chain. Due to the diversification of the UK supplier base, we would not anticipate this stop in production to have a significant impact on the UK aerospace industry overall but will consider the potential impact on individual companies. Boeing is working with its suppliers in the UK to minimise operational disruption and provide as much certainty as possible. We will continue to maintain close dialogue with Boeing and suppliers to monitor the situation as they continue to assess the appropriate duration of the suspension.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 07/01/2020 14:57:35 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
