Proceeding contribution from Claire O'Neill (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 March 2012. It occurred during Topical debate and Backbench debate on International Women's Day.
International Women's Day
Does my hon. Friend accept that when we consider a group of women in their 20s who are childless graduates, the gender pay gap has reversed, and that they now out-earn their male counterparts? Something sinister is happening as women go up the career chain—perhaps it is child care. Perhaps we should all focus our efforts on sorting that out.
