Safety At Holiday Resorts
EDM number 1283 in 2003-04, proposed by Jeffrey Donaldson on 26/05/2004.
That this House notes with concern the ever-increasing number of accidents that occur each year in other EU countries, which result in the death of, or serious injury to, British holidaymakers; notes that such accidents often result from poor safety standards and lack of proper monitoring procedures on the part of the local authorities in these countries; congratulates the Holiday Travel Watch organisation on its excellent campaign to alert British holidaymakers to the risks associated with holidaying abroad; and call on the Government to press for the introduction of appropriate regulations across the European Union to improve safety standards in holiday resorts including fire safety, food hygiene, safety at swimming pools, on beaches and on hotel and apartment balconies.
This motion has been signed by a total of 28 MPs.
