Clause 2 - Statutory paternity pay
Employment Bill
12:30 pm
Mr Alan Johnson (Minister of State (Employment and the Regions), Department of Trade and Industry; Kingston upon Hull West and Hessle, Labour)
I would not like to answer yes or no. That is the general principle, but obviously it will depend on the detail, about which we will consult and which will be subject to the affirmative procedure. With that, I hope that the Committee will accept the clause.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 2 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
