HONOURABLE MEMBER FOR FALMOUTH AND CAMBORNE AND THE CAMBORNE SCHOOL OF MINES

Early day motion 427, tabled 22 February 2000 by Lord Tyler (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 6 members.

That this House, recognising the world wide reputation, established over many generations, of the Camborne School of Mines, is dismayed by the proposal to relocate this unique Cornish institution elsewhere; regards this unnecessary move as a devastating blow to the economic and social future of the town of Camborne, with which it has been so famously associated for its whole lifetime; regrets that the honourable Member for Falmouth and Camborne has not supported the continuation of this vital facility in this community in the interests of the whole county; and calls on everyone in Cornwall, whilst welcoming the revised proposals for a university college, to vigorously oppose this particular feature of the plan.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 6.
