Early day motion 1188, tabled 2 March 2016 by Stephen Gethins (Scottish National Party). Signed by 28 members.

That this House notes Royal Mail's dismissal of postman David Mitchell; further notes that since his dismissal two subsequent tribunal hearings have found in favour of Mr Mitchell and that he was unfairly dismissed; is disappointed in Royal Mail's failure to reinstate Mr Mitchell and respect employment legislation but notes the support that he has received from his colleagues at the Royal Mail delivery office in Cupar and people across North East Fife; and calls on the Government to make representations to the Royal Mail about David Mitchell's case and respecting the decisions of the judicial rulings.
