Reprieve for Cumbria's HMV staff
Last updated at 15:16, Friday, 01 February 2013
There has been a temporary reprieve for staff at Cumbria’s HMV stores.
Administrators Deloitte yesterday confirmed they had made 190 redundancies across the troubled music store’s head office and distribution network.
It confirmed there were no job losses within stores, including Carlisle and Workington.
It is hoped that there are now better chances of selling the pared down company.
