Proceeding contribution from Christopher Chope (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

Is my hon. Friend aware of this statistic: companies that have received private equity backing account for the employment of approximately 3 million people, which is equivalent to 21 per cent. of UK private sector employees, and that almost all those employees would be categorised as skilled workers?
