plans to sell the four yards in an effort to save the historic shipbuilding operation. The future of Harland & Wolff remains uncertain as potential buyers are sought to keep vital defence contracting in the UK and secure jobs for the 1,200 employees at risk. The collapse of the company is a setback to the national shipbuilding strategy and highlights the challenges faced by the British shipbuilding industry. Efforts are underway to find a solution and ensure the continuation of shipbuilding at the iconic Belfast yard.
