CAMPAIGN FOR A MINERS MEMORIAL DAY

Early day motion 623, tabled 1 February 2005 by Gerry Steinberg (Labour). Signed by 57 members.

That this House supports calls for a special day when the country can remember all those who gave their lives to the mining industry, and all miners who continue to suffer from industrial illnesses associated with the hewing out of coal that was the nation's vital energy source of the 19th and 20th centuries in Britain.
