James Brokenshire commented:
We are clearly very disappointed with this initial determination. Boeings position in this case is unjustified and not what would be expected of a long-term partner to the UK.

We will also continue to work closely with the Canadian government to encourage all parties to reach a credible resolution as quickly as possible.
