Proceeding contribution from Lord Bach (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 25 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Employment Bill [HL].
Employment Bill [HL]
I thank my noble friend Lord Wedderburn for raising the issue. We know that the number of unpaid awards is a real issue. A problem has been that we have never yet seen robust evidence for the figure of one in 20, and would very much like to see those figures. However, we absolutely accept that the issue needs to be examined. Indeed, as I speak, the Government are commissioning research to do just that.
