Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 2 December 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill.

Equality Bill

The hon. Lady is making her case powerfully, as she always does. She said that she was concerned about the gender pay gap. According to the Office for National Statistics, although among full-time workers women are paid less than men, among part-time workers they are paid more than men. Is the hon. Lady as concerned about the fact that men are paid less than women in part-time work as she is about the fact that women are paid less than men in full-time work, or is she bothered about only one side of the equation?
