SERVICE PERSONNEL TRAVELLING TIME

Early day motion 1865, tabled 13 July 2009 by Angus Robertson (Scottish National Party). Signed by 33 members.

That this House notes that the Ministry of Defence currently counts travel time to and from service areas as part of forces personnel's well-deserved vacations; believes that servicemen and women who risk their lives for their country should be afforded full vacations excluding time in transit and therefore allowing them to have more contact with family and friends; and calls on the Government to make the necessary changes as soon as is practically possible.

Signatures by party: Labour 12, Liberal Democrat 6, DUP 5, Conservative 4, Scottish National Party 4, Independent 1, Social Democratic and Labour Party 1.
