Important:
At the time, a spokesperson for Rolls Royce SMR, which is separate from the car brand, highlighted that the "criteria had changed" and that building a factory at Scotch Corner right now wouldn't be in its interest.
The spokesperson added: "We've had a couple of governments since the initial announcement about Scotch Corner, and the pace needed to progress has been curtailed somewhat."
However, two months on from those comments, in an updated statement, a Rolls-Royce SMR spokesperson said: "Work is underway to match available sites with the criteria to host the Rolls-Royce SMR manufacturing facility.
“This facility will produce components for Rolls-Royce SMR’s factory-built power station and will sustain high-quality, long-term jobs with potential for hundreds more in the local supply chain.”
