Chris Lyttle MLA said: “This is great news for the local economy with Bombardier being such a major employer in East Belfast. It is a very positive reflection on the company and I hope that we hear more news like this to help provide new jobs in Northern Ireland.
“Bombardier provides high skill, high value jobs and these are the types of posts we need to look to increase in number to help maximise Northern Ireland’s economic potential.”
