EDINBURGH OLD TOWN FIRE

Early day motion 312, tabled 9 December 2002 by Tam Dalyell (Labour). Signed by 44 members.

That this House pays tribute to the skill, professionalism and courage of the personnel of Edinburgh, Lothians and Fife Fire Service in saving much of the World Heritage Site of the Old Town of Edinburgh; and recognises the opinion of experts, that the green goddesses would have had no chance of containing the furnace that would have engulfed many historic buildings.

Signatures by party: Labour 33, Scottish National Party 5, Liberal Democrat 3, Plaid Cymru 2, Labour/Co-operative 1.
