Jobs lost as Glasgow engineering firm collapses

An engineering firm in Glasgow has collapsed with the loss of 46 jobs.

Management at Walker MacLeod said they had to close the business after a downturn in trading.

The firm, which was established in 1981, supplied metal fabrications and electrical installation services to industrial and commercial enterprises.

In a statement, the company liquidators said their main priorities were supporting workers who had lost their jobs, and paying back creditors.
