Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Stephen Hesford (Labour), on Monday, 27 June 2005, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 2 members in total.


MERSEYTRAVEL TRAM BID

That this House notes with alarm the time and money wasted by Merseytravel in failing to secure Government backing for its Mersey tram project; calls for a full public inquiry into Merseytravel's handling of the project, not least the escalating costs; and further calls for Merseytravel to give an absolute assurance that any extra revenue raised under the Mersey Tunnel Act 2004 will be used to pay-off capital debt relating to the Mersey Tunnels with a view to securing toll-free use of the tunnels rather than being used for other transport schemes.
