Motion Text

That this House notes that the Government's sale of National Air Traffic Services (NATS) is in crisis with the prospect of the airline group seeking public subsidies less than six months after the purchase date; and calls upon the Government to reject any requests for financial assistance from these private companies and instead to bring NATS under the ownership and control of a non-profit making trust.
