PAY OF TANKER DRIVERS

Early day motion 1772, tabled 11 June 2008 by Lindsay Hoyle (Labour). Signed by 19 members.

That this House notes with regret that tanker drivers for Shell have effectively had a pay freeze for 15 years; notes that Shell's board members received an average 16 per cent. increase in their packages last year; and calls on Shell to demonstrate recognition of the invaluable contribution the tanker drivers make to their £1.3 billion-a-month company.
