UNITE THE UNION'S BACK HOME SAFE CAMPAIGN

Early day motion 754, tabled 18 November 2013 by Frank Doran (Labour). Signed by 45 members.

That this House supports Unite the Union's Back Home Safe campaign, highlighting the need for immediate action to improve the safety of offshore flights; recognises the work of that union, following the most recent fatal offshore helicopter incident, in canvassing workers to show that over half do not feel adequately protected; acknowledges the role of the inquiries which have already been announced; but believes that only a full independent public inquiry will examine all aspects of helicopter operations offshore, including the role of the Civil Aviation Authority.

Signatures by party: Labour 40, Social Democratic and Labour Party 2, Independent 1, Liberal Democrat 1, Respect 1.
