NORTH DEVON MP NICK HARVEY FINDS OUT HOW MCDONALD'S OPERATES

March 5, 2009 12:00 AM

Nick at Roundswell MacDonaldsNorth Devon MP Nick Harvey visited the Roundswell McDonald's restaurant to see how the business operates.

The tour was hosted by franchisee David Hunt, who owns and operates four restaurants in Devon.

Mr Harvey said, 'I am delighted I had the opportunity to see first-hand how a restaurant franchise is run, and to view the business from the other side rather than from a customer's perspective.

'I was particularly keen to hear more about McDonald's training initiatives. It's no secret that work-based training offers a valuable alternative to more traditional education models, and in the midst of a downturn it is more vital than ever that employers play their part in investing in the skills that our workforce needs to compete on a local, regional and wider field.'

    If you are a resident of the North Devon constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
