LIVERPOOL Chamber of Commerce is to cut 13 jobs as it adjusts to anticipated falling revenues.
The restructuring is a result of a forecast fall in its income by as much as 40% - as several contracts end.
However, the business association has not been hit by - and does not expect to see - a fall in its 1,700-strong membership.
Liverpool Chamber's chief executive, Jack Stopforth, stressed there was no short-term threat to the Chamber, but the proposed cuts were "essential to maintain the viability" of the Chamber for the long term.
