British Telecom Withdrawal From Wales

EDM number 1052 in 1990-91, proposed by Win Griffiths on 01/07/1991.

That this House calls on British Telecommuncations plc to reverse its decision to withdraw, under Project Sovereign, its only network operation unit in Wales; believes that its present base in Bridgend, along with another in the West Country, is the best means of serving both sides of the Severn Estuary; and urges British Telecommunications plc to revise its plans accordingly.

This motion has been signed by a total of 35 MPs.
