Proceeding contribution from Judy Mallaber (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 October 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Jobs for the Girls: Two Years On.


Jobs for the Girls: Two Years On

Yes, this place might be one—but when I found the sheet of advice again yesterday I thought perhaps we are making some slight progress. I shall hold up those attitudes as examples of what we aspire to remove everywhere we go, but I hope we have moved on a bit beyond them. We can perhaps make a little more progress on some other issues too. The report is a good one. There are many recommendations and many people are doing a lot of hard work, but it is a massive area with an awful lot more to do. We were disappointed with the initial progress, but we were encouraged, as we continued, with the steps that were taken. I should be interested to hear further comments on those steps and where we are going.
