Proceeding contribution from Ian Stewart (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Local Transport Bill [Lords].


Local Transport Bill [Lords]

I am grateful to my hon. Friend for his patience. We are considering issues that are important to our constituents and to us as politicians. The TUPE regulations were originally intended to ensure that unscrupulous employers could not make workers redundant on a Friday and offer them a new contract, with lower terms and conditions, on a Monday. The Bill's provisions on that matter are good and will hopefully remain when it becomes an Act.
