Instruments On Planes

EDM number 1296 in 2007-08, proposed by Janet Anderson on 01/04/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Arts and Aviation.

That this House notes that the vast majority of musicians have to travel with their instruments in the course of making their living; further notes the lack of consistent policy between airlines and airports on the transportation of musical instruments; is concerned that restrictions on transporting musical instruments should not be influenced by commercial incentives; and therefore urges the Government to develop a clear and consistent policy for airlines that allows musicians to be able to continue to travel with their instruments without incurring unfair financial penalties.

This motion has been signed by a total of 56 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
