About 800 jobs are to go at a US-owned computer chip factory in Scotland.
Freescale, which employs about 1,000 people in South Lanarkshire, had been looking for a buyer for the plant since September last year.
It was hoped the East Kilbride factory could be sold as a going concern but in June the company announced plans for a proposed closure.
