Job Cuts At Trinity Mirror

EDM number 1158 in 2005-06, proposed by Chris Bryant on 30/11/2005.

That this House notes the proposed job cuts at Trinity Mirror in South Wales; further notes that Trinity Mirror in owning Wales on Sunday, the Western Mail, the South Wales Echo, the Rhondda Leader and the Pontypridd Observer, holds a virtual monopoly of the local newspaper market in South Wales; believes that a strong and varied newspaper market is vital to the democratic and journalistic health of South Wales; urges Trinity Mirror to reconsider its policy of combining editorial posts on separate titles; and urges the Competition Commission to consider a review of the South Wales newspaper market.

This motion has been signed by a total of 30 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
