ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE UK

Early day motion 268, tabled 16 July 2014 by Gregory Campbell (DUP). Signed by 22 members.

That this House recognises that the wider economy in the south east of England has for generations been much more resilient than the rest of the UK, particularly in times of recession; and calls on the Government along with each devolved legislature to commit to ensuring that as the economy improves, major infrastructural projects, educational issues targeting young people not in education or training, high speed broadband programmes and other projects are invested in across the UK to assist in the development of a more prosperous future for the entire nation.

Signatures by party: Labour 7, DUP 6, Liberal Democrat 5, Alliance 1, Conservative 1, Green 1, Independent 1.
