Workers at the ThyssenKrupp Tallent car parts plant in Felinfoel who had been warned they could lose their jobs have been told they are safe for at least a year.
When potential job losses were first announced in 2008, I met staff at the plant and arranged a meeting between managers and the Deputy First Minister.
Following the meeting, the Assembly Government launched the ProAct scheme, which enables companies to apply for a grant so that employees who would otherwise be made redundant or put on short-time working can receive training.
Thyssen Krupp secured the ProAct support in April.
