Proceeding contribution from Russell Brown (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Employment Bill [Lords].


Employment Bill [Lords]

We have moved on from the £5.20 an hour that we had previously, and thankfully we have moved on from the £3.60. There is the London weighting, as has been indicated. The hon. Lady's colleagues fought hard to try to introduce regional variations for the rest of the country when the Bill was going through Committee, and thankfully they were defeated.
