FIREFIGHTERS' PAY NEGOTIATIONS
EDM number 543 in 2002-03, proposed by Mike Wood on 20/01/2003.
That this House calls on the ODPM to publish the Pathfinder report into the British Fire Service, given that it has already been leaked to Channel 4 news, so that all sides involved in firefighters' pay negotiations, conditions and working practices have access to all current thinking on these issues, particularly those conclusions which contradict the findings of the Bain Inquiry; believes it is unwise for present negotiations to continue based solely on the findings of Bain given the level of contradiction which exists; and expresses grave concern that any deal which is reached relying on bain's findings alone could cause substantial and lasting damage to the British Fire Service and relations between firefighters and their employers.
This motion has been signed by a total of 43 MPs.
