Gurkha Veterans

EDM number 1793 in 2005-06, proposed by Ann Widdecombe on 10/03/2006.

That this House welcomes the Government's overdue steps towards producing Gurkhas' terms and conditions of service which are equitable and fair and which begin to remedy the injustice caused by discriminatory conditions of service; but believes that the Gurkha veterans who served the British Army from the Second World War to 1997 are no less affected by the injustice caused to Gurkhas by the discriminatory terms of service; and therefore urges the Government to take steps to remedy the impact of those discriminatory terms before it is too late for the veterans affected.

This motion has been signed by a total of 145 MPs.
