Conduct Of The Honourable Member For Cunninghame North

EDM number 639 in 1996-97, proposed by Bill Walker on 11/03/1997.

That this House notes that the honourable Member for Cunninghame North during a speech on Monday 11th March, failed to declare an interest as a director and shareholder of a political socialist newspaper company; further notes that the company had a bespoke factory built by Highlands and Islands Development Board at a cost of ú127,000 and that the company received loans and grants to the value of over ú95,000 from the HIDB and a local enterprise company within the Highlands Enterprise network; and believes that the honourable Member who had made a political career out of attacking other honourable Members with links with companies which have received loans and grants as well as ordinary Scots who have received grants from public bodies, should note the Speaker's comments about his conduct and resign his position as a shadow front-bench spokesman.

This motion has been signed by a total of 43 MPs.
