Proceeding contribution from Nick Smith (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 February 2012. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Agricultural Policy.


Agricultural Policy

Working on a farm can be hard and dangerous. Without the Agricultural Wages Board, sick pay for a grade 1 worker will fall from £180 a week to a statutory minimum of just £81.60. Does he agree that that is a staggering fall in income for those too ill to work?
