DIRECTORS' DUTIES

EDM number 359 in 2006-07, proposed by Ian Stewart on 29/11/2006.

That this House welcomes the provisions of the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill; notes that it does not include any mention of health and safety duties applying to company directors; further notes that the report by the Home Affairs and Work and Pensions Select Committees (First Joint Report of Session 2005-06) clearly supported the introduction of such directors' duties; and calls on the Government to introduce appropriate legislation to ensure that company directors who neglect health and safety to the point of causing death or serious injury can be prosecuted.

This motion has been signed by a total of 133 MPs, 5 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
