Coaches to be debated in Westminster Hall

A general debate on the future of the coach industry is to be held by the Backbench Business Committee on 10 December. Held at 3pm in the Westminster Hall, the debate will be opened by Labour MP for Easington, Grahame Morris.

The Labour MP has been rallying for support of the coach industry. A statement on his website said: “Some of these activities are curtailed at this time, causing the coach industry’s economic problems. If coach firms do not make it through this difficult period, many activities will be unable to continue when we eventually transition out of the coronavirus crisis.”

He has suggested Parliament must play a role in urging the Government’s development of a specific support package for the coach industry.
