Cllr Jayne Dunlop said: “These further job losses will be another devastating blow to the local economy.
“It is a very sad time for all involved in this company. It is having a knock on effect on shops and businesses in the area as I know some people have cancelled large orders as they are uncertain of their economic future.
“I hope that the Executive will do all that is possible to help Patton as well as the construction sector in general which is facing a difficult time.”
