HOUSING FOR MEMBERS OF HM ARMED FORCES

Early day motion 678, tabled 6 September 2010 by Bob Russell (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 42 members.

That this House urges the Government to implement recommendations based on the findings of a poll commissioned by The Royal British Legion just before the 2010 General Election which stated that 84 per cent. of the public wanted bringing armed forces accommodation up to the highest standard to be a top priority for the new Government, a conclusion which endorses the Legion's `Time to do your bit' manifesto to all election candidates to show their support for the armed forces, which included a specific call for thenew Government `to bring all single and family accommodation up the highest standard within the lifetime of the next parliament.'

Signatures by party: Labour 23, Liberal Democrat 9, DUP 5, Conservative 3, Independent 1, Plaid Cymru 1.
