The Halifax Labour MP Holly Lynch and the Calder Valley Conservative MP Craig Whittaker will also give speeches at the event.

The purpose is for a discussion about the forthcoming European referendum and what the views, concerns, implications and thoughts are of businesses across Calderdale.

It is not a debate but rather a chance for the MPs to gather the thoughts of businesses in their constituencies.

The event is open to members with guests being invited for a fee of £10.

Prime Minister David Cameron announced on Saturday that a referendum on the UK’s membership will be held on Thursday, June 23.
