Sale Of The Tote

EDM number 680 in 1998-99, proposed by Laurence Robertson on 24/05/1999.

That this House notes that paragraph 5 of the Report of the Steering Group on the Tote Review states that the Government has not financed the Tote and does not stand behind it as a financial guarantor; in view of this, feels that the taxpayer is not due a financial return from any sale of the Tote; calls upon the Government to recognise this fact when changing the status of the Tote; and therefore urges the Government to transfer the ownership of the Tote to a racing body free of charge.

This motion has been signed by a total of 8 MPs.
