Visteon

Welsh Assembly members (AMs) have set up a cross-party group to campaign for increased compensation for former Allied Steel and Wire (ASW) workers who lost pensions when the firm collapsed.

Members of the Visteon pension fund have accepted a £28m settlement with former employer Ford over losses suffered when the scheme entered the Pension Protection Fund (PPF).

Ford has offered to top up the pensions of former Visteon workers in a bid to end a long-running dispute which had been due to reach the High Court later this year.

Pensions minister Steve Webb is to meet representatives of Ford Motor Company to discuss the plight of ex-workers who transferred their pensions to Visteon.

MPs will debate whether Ford should recognise a duty of care to its former employees who transferred pensions to the Visteon UK pension fund next week.

MPs have demanded Ford compensates former employees who suffered pension losses after the collapse of Visteon and claim the manufacturer set up the spin-off firm to fail.

An all party parliamentary to investigate the failure of the Visteon pension scheme, set up by MP Stephen Metcalfe, has achieved formal recognition.

More than 200 ex-Visteon workers have descended on Parliament to demand the restoration of their pension rights on the third anniversary of the collapse of their former employer.
