Eurostar Dress Code

EDM number 977 in 1998-99, proposed by Jeremy Corbyn on 03/11/1999.

That this House calls upon Eurostar to reinstate Lynn McKay and Debbie Sheen to their jobs as security workers forthwith; applauds the women's refusal to wear skirts instead of trousers as being inappropriate to their work; notes that the company's insistence is a breach of their conditions of employment; and further applauds the GMB union for supporting the women's case and its preparedness to take the case to an industrial tribunal.
