Conduct Of The Honourable Member For Edinburgh South (No. 3)

EDM number 1590 in 1997-98, proposed by Archie Hamilton on 22/07/1998.

That this House deplores recent public criticisms made by the honourable Member for Edinburgh South of civil servants in the Department of Trade and Industry; calls upon the President of the Board of Trade to censure him publicly and to denounce his remarks; and dissociates itself from his brash and ill-informed remarks that 'when it comes to performance as a Minister, I'm rated as one of the best in the House'.

This motion has been signed by a total of 44 MPs.
