To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when she last met representatives of First Group; and what the subject was of their discussions.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when she last met representatives of First Group; and what the subject was of their discussions.
That this House notes the plans by First Group to reduce bus services in north Bristol; recognises that these services are used by a significant number of elderly and vulnerable people as their main means of transport; further notes that First Group holds monopoly on bus services in Bristol; and calls on the Government to do everything in its power to persuade First Group to retain these services and to open up competition in the provision of bus services in major cities.

My hon. Friend the Member for Crewe and Nantwich (Mrs. Dunwoody) has been in the House for a great many years and has a great deal of experience. Any Minister responding to a case made by her would do so with some care and caution. I know that she cares...

Mr. Hood, it is always a delight to see you in the Chair and to have the opportunity to raise a subject of great importance. I stand here as a trade union MP, in the sense that I have the support of ASLEF, the train drivers’ union. However, the matter...

It would not be wise for me to become a mediator between First Group and Teamsters. The issue should be resolved between the unions and the company within the legal framework in which they operate. Employment practices are a function of each country’s traditions, history and institutional arrangements. My hon....

It is in the interests of the United Kingdom, is it not, that companies based in the UK but operating elsewhere should be successful, responsible and highly respected? Have the Government no view on the responsibility that companies have to comply with basic laws?

My hon. Friend rightly says that it is important that British companies operating abroad have regard to some of the things that she mentions. We would expect those companies to comply with the legal systems in which they operate. Some countries have ensured that basic standards are built into their...

Is my hon. Friend interpreting the right to freedom of association? I have never said that there is a right of a particular trade union to be recognised or that the UK should insist on it. That would be absurd and unacceptable. However, there is clear commitment to freedom of...

May I just point out that people must have the right to be in a trade union before they can be barred from one, so the point that the Minister made is not relevant?

I accept my hon. Friend’s point. The one that I was making is that when it comes to collective bargaining, recognition is subject to national legal systems and to negotiations between specific companies and their employees. The ILO conventions can raise issues about conflicting human rights and my hon. Friend...

On terms and conditions for workers internationally, First Group could be used as template for the way that it treats migrant workers coming into this country because it gives them the same terms and conditions. The Minister is right not to be judge and jury, but given the serious accusations...

My hon. Friend referred in much of her speech to the activities of UK-owned companies operating abroad, particularly those of First Group. She compared its employment practices in the UK and in the US. She also referred to the campaign waged by the Teamsters union to obtain recognition at the...

Westminster hall adjournment debate on First Group and other British companies and international labour law.
Westminster hall adjournment debate on First Group and other British companies and international labour law.
That this House condemns First Group's recent 10 per cent. increase in bus fares in Manchester; recognises that this is another example of First Group exploiting their near monopoly of services in North Manchester at the expense of the travelling public; and believes that the sooner First Group and other private bus companies have to operate in a regulated system the sooner the public will get reliability, punctuality, lower fares and better public transport and First will stop making its excessive profits.
