David Hutchinson Appointed an OBE for his Dedication to Offshore Safety

Lodged by Alexander Burnett (Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party) Standard Motion 16 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates David Hutchinson, who is from Meikle Wartle, on being appointed an OBE by The Queen in recognition of his dedication to offshore diving safety; commends David on his efforts to ensure that every diver who goes to work comes back injury-free and with their lives intact; recognises that his career in diving began in the 1970s, which was a time when many in that occupation lost their lives as a result of venturing below sea level to work on offshore installations and spending up to 28 days at a time locked in a pressurised tanker under the water; thanks David for his continued dedication, and wishes him all the best.
