Erection Of Rugby League Statue At Wembley Stadium

EDM number 2260 in 2010-12, proposed by Greg Mulholland on 17/10/2011.

That this House welcomes the erection of a statue at Wembley Stadium celebrating the sport of Rugby League; believes this is a fitting tribute to a sport synonymous with the home of Rugby League and the Challenge Cup Final since 1929; notes that the campaign by the RFL, the All Party Parliamentary Rugby League Group and others has been successful; recalls some of the outstanding examples of sporting excellence displayed at the original and new stadium; and looks forward to seeing the statue once complete.

This motion has been signed by a total of 17 MPs.
