Proceeding contribution from Stephen Doughty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 November 2016. It occurred during Debate on Exiting the EU and Workers’ Rights.


Exiting the EU and Workers’ Rights

I thank my hon. Friend for giving way again. He is very generous. Does he not also find it incredible that the Secretary of State prayed in aid the appointment of Baroness McGregor-Smith to a position that involves advising on employment rights? She was ennobled at a time when her company, Mitie, and its

subsidiary MiHomecare were being investigated by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs for non-payment of the minimum wage to its workers.
