Stay of execution for Hall's plant

WORKERS at a closure-threatened meat processing plant have won a brief stay of execution.

The deadline for a decision has been extended by 48 hours after two companies bidding to save Hall's of Broxburn were given more time to table a bid.

The plant, which employs 1700 people in West Lothian, has been under threat since its owner Vion said in July that it saw no alternative to closure.
