Crane Safety On Construction Sites

EDM number 710 in 2006-07, proposed by Martin Linton on 22/01/2007.

That this House welcomes the campaign launched by Building magazine to improve safety standards for cranes following recent crane collapses in Battersea, Liverpool and central London; recognises that there is an increased risk both to construction workers and to the public from the use of tower cranes on brownfield sites in residential areas; and supports the calls from Building magazine for a publicly-available register of checks to cranes and construction equipment and from the Battersea Crane Disaster Action Group for a review of crane safety legislation.

This motion has been signed by a total of 66 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
