Shrewsbury County Court

EDM number 754 in 1997-98, proposed by Paul Marsden on 06/02/1998.

That this House is deeply concerned by the Court Service's proposal to close the Shrewsbury County Court which would leave the county town of Shropshire without a county court, would force hundreds of local people from a large rural area including clients, solicitors and judges since there is a high volume of work undertaken in Shrewsbury; believes closures would fail to save money; and urges the Government to reject this proposal and look at improving all court facilities in Shrewsbury.

This motion has been signed by a total of 7 MPs.
