Dunlop Hydraulic Hose

EDM number 878 in 2001-02, proposed by David Clelland on 25/02/2002.

That this House condemns the closure of Dunlop Hydraulic Hose on the Team Valley Trading Estate in Gateshead, with the loss of 99 jobs; notes that the cynical and unrealistic response to an offer by the workforce to consider any proposal to rescue the plant was to suggest a 75 per cent. cut in wages; further notes that the company has given minimum notice and minimum redundancy terms to loyal workers of up to and in excess of 30 years service; and expresses disappointment that Dunlop should choose to leave Gateshead after a 50 year history in the town and outrage that this international company should treat its workers and the local community in such a mean and shabby manner.

This motion has been signed by a total of 19 MPs.
