WEMBLEY STADIUM

Early day motion 1661, tabled 15 September 2004 by Vera Baird (Labour). Signed by 21 members.

That this House expresses its concern that Multiplex, the Australian contractor behind the new Wembley stadium, has conceded for the first time that the current dispute has led to a hitch on the ú757 million project; and calls upon the management immediately to reinstate the highly skilled British workers they recently caused to be dismissed in such a cavalier fashion and enter meaningful negotiations with the trade unions to resolve any outstanding difficulties and get this national project back on track.

Signatures by party: Labour 17, Conservative 1, DUP 1, Labour/Co-operative 1, Liberal Democrat 1.
