Assaults On Railway Employees

EDM number 389 in 2006-07, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 04/12/2006.

That this House deplores the incidence of assaults on railway staff; recognises that railway employees should be free from any form of verbal or physical abuse; condemns those who commit such offences and in particular the fact that 37 per cent. of assaults are racially motivated according to a recent report by the British Transport Police; welcomes the zero tolerance campaign launched against those who attack railway empoyees; and calls on the Government to work with the British Transport Police, trade unions and train operating companies to tackle assaults on railway staff and increase penalties for such offences.

This motion has been signed by a total of 83 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
