SCHOOL CROSSING WARDENS

Motion Text

That this House pays tribute to the invaluable contribution made to communities throughout the land by school crossing wardens; acknowledges that their irreplaceable road safety role is often performed in adverse conditions; views with concern the increasing difficulties that schools and local education authorities are experiencing in filling vacancies for wardens; and calls on the Government and local government bodies to review the role and remuneration of this important position with a view to rewarding existing wardens and attracting others in the future.
