Proceeding contribution from Alan Reid (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 18 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Work and Families Bill.
Work and Families Bill
The Minister is quite right that the matter is devolved to the Scottish Parliament. The Scottish Agricultural Wages Board sets the minimum wage as well as holiday entitlement. It is obliged to set a minimum wage that is above the national minimum wage and a holiday entitlement that is greater than that laid down in the Working Time Regulations 1998. Will the Minister assure the House that the future holiday entitlement of agricultural workers in Scotland will not lag behind that laid down in UK or European regulations?
