Proceeding contribution from Gwyneth Dunwoody (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 March 2006. It occurred during Urgent question on Immigration (Work Permits).


Immigration (Work Permits)

Will the Home Secretary, in conjunction with the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, take a hard look at employment agencies that are recruiting and importing large numbers of workers from eastern European states, exploiting them by charging them for every conceivable service, leaving them with very little of their own money, and suggesting that there is an enormous pool of unskilled jobs still unable to be filled in the United Kingdom? That is not in anyone’s interests and does this country’s reputation enormous harm.- I will not tell anyone.
