Norweb Closures

EDM number 384 in 1996-97, proposed by Lawrence Cunliffe on 14/01/1997.

That this House condemns the decision by United Utilities, the giant company formed when North West Water acquired Norweb to close 51 Norweb shops in high streets throughout the North West, which along with other restructuring policies will result in 1,100 Norweb retail jobs being lost from a total of 2,780 and which will adversely affect customers, particularly the elderly and the poor.

This motion has been signed by a total of 39 MPs.
