British Council Jobs In Manchester

EDM number 1917 in 2005-06, proposed by John Leech on 28/03/2006.

That this House notes with concern that the British Council is reported to be considering moving jobs from Manchester to London; recognises that this would be in stark contrast to the current trend of moving jobs from London out to the regions; and therefore calls on the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in their discussions with the British Council to remind management of the benefits of retaining jobs in Manchester.

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