Parliamentary print group MP visits magazine printer Pensord

Don Touhig, MP for Islwyn, South Wales has visited local magazine printer Pensord to get an insight into the industry.

The MP, who is a member of the recently reformed All Party Parliamentary Print Group (APPPG), which the BPIF has claimed will revitalise interest in print, said that Pensord is the "type of company Islwyn should be proud of".

Pensord chief executive Tony Jones added: "The printing industry, as many others, faces a number of challenges, and it is encouraging that these issues are being taken seriously at parliamentary level."

The APPPG is aimed at promoting wider understanding of those issues affecting the industry and raising the profile of the printing industry among parliamentarians.
