I was delighted to meet up with the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs Rt Hon Philip Hammond MP. A great place supporting local jobs and opportunity.
The Foreign Secretary, Philip Hammond MP said “My visit to NATS in Swanwick provided a useful opportunity to receive an update on the important national role it plays. This employer is integral to keeping Britain’s airspace safely managed and keeping Britain open for business.
Those working at NATS are helping ensure Britain can compete in the world whether that is through business travel or tourism. These are key jobs that support the recovery and our long-term economic plan by ensuring our airspace is competently run.
I was pleased to hear how well the civilian and military teams at NATS dealt with recent Russian flights up the English Channel. They can be proud of their efforts to ensure civilian aircraft were not adversely affected by these irresponsible flights.”
