Early day motion 1906, tabled 12 July 2007 by Lindsay Hoyle (Labour). Signed by 31 members.

That this House notes the number of cars run by Government departments and the Government Car and Despatch Agency which are built abroad; recognises the need to support British manufacturing and promote the car industry; believes that the Government should take a lead in this area by ensuring that all vehicles purchased by the Government for use by Ministers and officials should be built in the UK; and urges that such a policy be introduced as soon as possible.
