Business question from Anne Moffat (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 January 2007. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
May we have a debate on what can only be described as the plight of children in India, where modern-day slavery is going on? I do not know whether my right hon. Friend saw Sky News last week, which showed the blatant selling of young children in India. It is going on under everybody’s nose and nothing is being done about it. I would like us to debate that. I find it ironic that we are all debating what is going on in ““Big Brother”” on Channel 4 rather than rising up to defend the rights of those children in India.
