  • Southampton
So not all of the 20 "bases" mentioned in the LinkedIn article are true bases and would be under consideration of closure - and not all 11 true bases are listed in the LinkedIn article (DSA is not). Bases with "poor" or "marginal" performance according to that article are BHX, GLA, EXT, EDI and BHD - none of which I could imagine to be closed. I suppose those under review will be DUS, CWL, DSA and one of the Scottish bases.
So they would take the subsidy at CWL for three years and then not see out the rest of the agreement? Really? Do you think Welsh Government will see that as a good use of their money?
