AIR SERVICES TO NORTHERN IRELAND

Early day motion 1508, tabled 1 July 2003 by Gregory Campbell (DUP). Signed by 13 members.

That this House recognises the importance of direct air services between Northern Ireland and London; views with concern the recent development at bmi British Midland whereby most Belfast City-London Heathrow services have not only been fully booked but have had a number of potential passengers 'wait-listed' for flights, causing people to be delayed or inconvenienced; and calls on the company to establish whether additional flights are necessary and to take steps to see if they can be accommodated.

Signatures by party: DUP 3, Independent Ulster Unionist 3, Liberal Democrat 3, Conservative 1, Independent Conservative 1, Labour 1, UUP 1.
