Privatisation Of Ministry Of Defence Records

EDM number 301 in 2004-05, proposed by John McDonnell on 06/12/2004.

That this House notes with extreme concern reports that the process of privatisation of the Ministry of Defence Records Office at Bourne Avenue, Hayes, is putting the private and confidential records of past and present British servicemen and women at risk as a result of the lack of professional care and adequate security in the handling and transfer of these invaluable documents by TNT, which was awarded the contract to store these files; considers these historical artefacts are too important to be put in jeopardy in this way; and calls upon the Government to undertake an immediate independent investigation as a matter of urgency into the current status of the records and the process of the records transfer by TNT.

This motion has been signed by a total of 47 MPs.
