Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Angus Robertson (Scottish National Party), on Monday, 13 July 2009, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 33 members in total.
SERVICE PERSONNEL TRAVELLING TIME
That this House notes that the Ministry of Defence currently counts travel time to and from service areas as part of forces personnel's well-deserved vacations; believes that servicemen and women who risk their lives for their country should be afforded full vacations excluding time in transit and therefore allowing them to have more contact with family and friends; and calls on the Government to make the necessary changes as soon as is practically possible.
