Proceeding contribution from Christopher Chope (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 25 November 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Employment.
Employment
The Government were very sympathetic to workers at JCB who accepted a reduction in pay in order to try to remain competitive and keep their jobs—but that flexibility is not available to people on the minimum wage. Will the Government extend the same flexibility to people on the minimum wage, so that if they choose to accept a lower wage in order to retain the right to work, they can do so?
