Tata set for Jaguar take over

London - A British labour union said on Friday it had held constructive talks with India's Tata over its planned acquisition of Ford's Jaguar and Land Rover units.

"We are confident our members' long-term future is best served by Tata," said Dave Osborne, national secretary for vehicle building at the Unite union. "They totally ruled out offloading Jaguar or building Land Rovers in India."

"There's a couple of clarifications we still need from Ford, but I don't see any issues arising from that," he added.
