Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ussher (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 December 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Work and Families Bill.


Work and Families Bill

In that case why did the Conservatives oppose our policies on the working tax credit, the child tax credit, extending maternity leave to 26 weeks, two weeks’ paid paternity leave, three months’ adoption leave, the right to flexible working, increased maternity pay, giving part-time workers the same rights as full-time workers, four weeks’ paid leave and the national minimum wage?
