Shipbuilding Industry
EDM number 1042 in 1992-93, proposed by John Hutton on 09/12/1992.
That this House notes the continuing threat to jobs in the British shipbuilding and ship repair industries, exemplified by the closure of Cammel Lairds; recognises the important role the Intervention Fund can play in helping British yards to win new orders for merchant vessels; and therefore calls on the Government to seek extensions to the Seventh Directive on aid to shipbuilding so that warship yards can qualify for intervention funding.
This motion has been signed by a total of 58 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
