Oil refinery, owned by Petroineos , is set to close by the summer with the loss of more than 400 jobs.

The money will go towards creating a new industrial purpose for the site.

Sir Keir said the site could have a future in bioengineering, biofuels, or hydrogen energy.

Unite is the sole union representing workers at the plant.

It has led a campaign for the refinery to be transitioned into a production hub for sustainable aviation fuel.

The union said the funding was a "step in the right direction" but warned the "devil would be in the detail".
