Virgin Cross Country

EDM number 1574 in 2005-06, proposed by Jeremy Corbyn on 06/02/2006.

That this House is deeply concerned at the ongoing dispute between Virgin Cross Country and the Rail Maritime and Transport Union (RMT); is further concerned at reports that Virgin may be compromising the safety of passengers by the use of untrained and medically restricted personnel on strike days; regrets that Virgin has refused to return to the negotiating table; and therefore calls on Richard Branson to urge his company immediately to re-open negotiations with the RMT.

This motion has been signed by a total of 29 MPs.
