Proceeding contribution from John Heppell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 7 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Private Equity (Transfer of Undertakings and Protection of Employment) Bill.


Private Equity (Transfer of Undertakings and Protection of Employment) Bill

That is the argument that I started with. We cannot have it both ways. If someone says, ““They're already protected and these things are all going to happen automatically anyway, so there'll be no difference for the employee””, there is no great problem with the legislation, so how can it be burdensome and problematic? We cannot have it both ways.
