Proceeding contribution from Meg Munn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Sunday Trading (London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games) Bill [Lords].
Sunday Trading (London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games) Bill [Lords]
Of course there will be that concern for newly employed staff, but we know from existing practices that extra staff may well not be taken on. The existing staff will be expected to cover the additional time by reducing the hours worked from Monday to Friday. There are many problems. Managers in particular feel the pressure of having to work Sundays themselves, with the added pressure of having to ask their teams to cover longer hours. Like many other Members, I have been contacted by constituents and petitioners who find that very difficult.
