Parramatta. Concern over Shell closure

The Parramatta Chamber of Commerce hopes that all levels of government become involved in discussions with Shell to head the proposal for the possible closure of its refinery at Clyde. The Western Sydney economy and its employment opportunities rely heavily on manufacturing and the Camellia area is home to other manufacturers. The area is a vital part of the Parramatta business community and an important employment hub, the chamber said. Shell employs 310 people at the refinery.
