That this House notes that between 15 and 20 per cent. of all fatal air accidents cite pilot fatigue as a contributing factor; takes into account the restrictions which lorry drivers face in travelling time; acknowledges the difficult working conditions that pilots currently face within the UK; and opposes any change within the draft EU legislation being put forward which will result in pilots facing up to a 40 per cent. increase in duty on one day.
This motion has been signed by a total of 44 MPs.
