Luxury automotive manufacturer Rolls-Royce Motors has announced that  it will suspend production at its factory at Goodwood in the south of England from March 23.

It said a two-week suspension at the plant would lead into an already-planned two-week shut-down over the Easter holiday for maintenance. There will, therefore, be an interruption of at least four weeks at the plant.

Chief executive, Torsten Müller-Ötvös, said at the time of the announcement: “This action has not been taken lightly, but the health and well-being of our exceptional workforce is first and foremost in our minds. I have no doubt that our resilience will shine through during this extraordinary time.”
