Trade bodies meet over ARMS

Trade associations from the vehicle body repair sector are due to meet in Blackburn, Lancs, today.

The meeting had been called to agree a united approach to the collapse of work provider ARMS. Delegates from the MVRA, VBRA, RMI and ABP Club were all expected to debate how to work together in trying to secure payment for bodyshops left owed more than £1m after the collapse.
