Proceeding contribution from Nigel Evans (Conservative) 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

I am not a fan of the European Union by any stretch of the imagination—quite the opposite—but we were talking about industry last week and I recognise that the European Union may wish to try to bring something forward under which every EU country will do what we have been discussing to the same degree and strength, so that none has an unfair advantage. I prefer the flexibility, however. Has the hon. Gentleman been given any indication that the European Union is interested in legislating on this issue?
