<title>Network Rail Redundancies In Wales</title>
<proposer id="11863">Sian C James</proposer>
<date>2009-12-15</date>
<text>That this House is extremely concerned at the decision of Network Rail to introduce compulsory redundancies amongst rail maintenance workers despite receiving government subsidy of £5 billion per annum; notes with dismay that these redundancies will affect most of the rail network including the loss of over 100 Network Rail jobs in Wales; is appalled that skilled green jobs are being lost when they will be needed to expand and improve the railway network; is also alarmed at the safety implications of reducing a workforce who are responsible for ensuring the safe inspection and repair of track, signals and other rail infrastructure; and calls on Network Rail to review immediately its decision.</text>
