CONDUCT OF LABOUR HONOURABLE MEMBERS AND EARLY DAY MOTION 333

Tabled by Mr John Swinney (Scottish National Party) 3 signatures

The motion

That this House notes that at least 10 Labour honourable Members have withdrawn their names from Early Day Motion 333 (Lone Parent Child Benefit); regrets that they have stepped back from such a public criticism of the Government's proposal to cut benefits for single parents; and hopes that they have not succumbed to pressure from Labour Party Whips and that they will still vote against the Government's proposed cut when it comes before the House.
