CONDUCT OF LABOUR HONOURABLE MEMBERS AND EARLY DAY MOTION 333

Early day motion 514, tabled 27 November 1997 by John Swinney (Scottish National Party). Signed by 3 members.

That this House notes that at least 10 Labour honourable Members have withdrawn their names from Early Day Motion 333 (Lone Parent Child Benefit); regrets that they have stepped back from such a public criticism of the Government's proposal to cut benefits for single parents; and hopes that they have not succumbed to pressure from Labour Party Whips and that they will still vote against the Government's proposed cut when it comes before the House.

Signatures by party: Scottish National Party 3.
