Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Louise Ellman (Labour and Co-operative Party), on Monday, 7 November 2011, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 33 members in total.


PARLIAMENTARY REPORTING AND IAN HERNON

That this House is concerned at the decision by Trinity Mirror North West to close its Westminster operation and the impact this will have on daily coverage of Parliamentary and constituency issues, the effect of which will result in making Ian Hernon, the most experienced lobby correspondent in Parliament, with 33 years of continuous service, the last 11 for the Liverpool Daily Post and Echo, redundant; recognises his reputation for straightforward reportage and political analysis; and is concerned that this could result in a diminution of Parliamentary reporting.
