The President of the Government of Navarre, María Chivite, and the Councillors Mikel Irujo and Carmen Maeztu have appeared in the press room of the Palace of Navarre to report on the closure. Chivite has informed the management of BSH of his firm opposition to this decision, which he has described as a complete error, and has referred to the "lack of humanity" of the company.
The President of Navarre has advanced that she will contact the Ministry of Industry to contact companies that have expressed an interest in maintaining plant activity, according to which there is a possibility of maintaining plant activity.
Meanwhile, a committee delegation on the way to Brusela da met this Tuesday with the Industry Commissioner and the Employment Commissioner to report on the closure announced by the BSH on 16 December and confirmed on Monday.
