Proceeding contribution from Pat McFadden (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 February 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Lindsey Oil Refinery.
Lindsey Oil Refinery
As I said, the vast majority of workers on the site are British. It is legal for a European company to contract for work and to say that it will use its permanent employees to carry it out. The issue of discrimination arises if new vacancies are advertised, and the statement issued last night by Total, which runs the site, made it clear that if new vacancies are advertised the company will work with all its subcontractors to make sure that UK workers are considered in the same way as anyone else.
