Jobs lost in Tuam

A car component factory in Tuam in Co Galway is to lay off 25 of its 260 strong workforce. Valeo Vision Systems, which specialises in the manufacture of in car camera systems, says the lay-offs are as a result of falling sales in the international car industry. Valeo, whose headquarters is in France, employs 61,000 worldwide. It bought the Tuam factory, which was previously known as CEL, last July. In a statement, the company says the job losses will be mainly in the production area of the plant.
