Communication At Christmas For Frontline Troops

EDM number 2078 in 2008-09, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 19/10/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Armed forces and Armed forces welfare.

That this House calls for the Ministry of Defence to repeat last year's provision of extra minutes of free talk time over the festive period for British military personnel serving overseas; further calls for an assessment of the adequacy of mobile broadband internet terminals to ensure adequate access to email; and recognises how valuable being able to communicate with family and friends at home is for troops, particularly during the Christmas holidays.

This motion has been signed by a total of 81 MPs.
