Business question from Gwyn Prosser (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 July 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
This year, we celebrate the 10th anniversary of Labour's minimum wage, but non-UK seafarers sailing on British ships and going to British ports are still exempt from the Act. Now that the new Shipping Minister is considering that loophole, and others, what can the Leader of the House do to help amend the Act and bring some fairness into the system?
