<title>Memorial To New Cross Fire Victims</title>
<proposer id="10519">Joan Ruddock</proposer>
<date>1997-02-07</date>
<text>That this House congratulates the New Cross Fire Parents Committee on realising at last their ambition to raise a permanent public memorial to their sons and daughters; Patrick Cummings, Andrew Gooding, Peter Campbell, Gerry Paul Francis, Steve Collins, Patricia Johnson, Rosaline Henry, Lloyd Hall, Humphrey Geoffrey Brown, Owen Thompson, Yvonee Ruddock, Glenton Powell, Paul Ruddock and Anthony Berbeck, who died in the New Cross Fire on 18th January 1981; applauds the unvieling of the plaques by Mrs Sybil Phoenix MBE at Lewisham Town Hall on 10th February; recognises the acute and continuing suffering of the families resulting from their loss and the fact that no one has been brought to justice for the crimes committed, but trusts that some comfort may now be afforded to them and their friends by this public recognition of their tragedy.</text>
