CARILLION LIQUIDATION

Early day motion 786, tabled 15 January 2018 by Stephen Lloyd (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 29 members.

That this House holds grave concerns for the thousands of Carillion pension scheme members who face a cut to their pensions of at least 10 per cent because of the company's administration; is concerned that the former Carillion Chief Executive is to be rewarded for failure by continuing to receive his £660,000 salary, despite resigning from the company in 2017 in the wake of the business issuing successive profits warnings in 2017; calls on the Government to explain why it awarded contracts to Carillion despite said profits warnings; and further calls on the Government to implement a public inquiry immediately into how Carillion continued to win Government contracts despite obvious and public failings.

Signatures by party: Scottish National Party 10, Labour 8, Liberal Democrat 8, DUP 1, Independent 1, Plaid Cymru 1.
