PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
London Ambulance Workers (28 November 1989)

That this House expresses its extreme concern at the Government's failure to settle the ambulance workers' dispute; is appalled to know that the London Ambulance Service currently faces a staff shortage of over 200, together with an extremely high rate of staff turnover; notes that the army and police are unable to provide a proper ambulance service for London; knows that Londoners have the highest regard for the men and women of the Ambulance Service and wish to see their justifiable and reasonable claim met in full; and calls upon the Government to cease their campaign of intimidation and hostility towards these dedicated workers and submit the current dispute to independent arbitration forthwith.
