Proceeding contribution from John McDonnell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 2 February 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Coastguard Service.


Coastguard Service

On a point of order, Mr Hancock. The Minister has made reference to the unions agreeing with his proposals in some form. I would not wish him to mislead the House. I chair the Public and Commercial Services Union group in Parliament. That group represents 500 members who will be affected. The unions have not supported these proposals and will not accept 220 jobs being cut, which they believe will put lives at risk.
