Proceeding contribution from Anne Main (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 7 November 2007. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Home Affairs and Justice Debate on the Address.
Home Affairs and Justice
As the hon. Lady might know, my constituency contains large Bangladeshi and Pakistani communities. May I caution her over the figures that she gave in relation to economic inactivity? The family model in those communities is often for the lady member or members to stay at home and provide a valuable service supporting the family and looking after the children, but they may be counted as being ““economically inactive””.
