Clause 1
Temporary and Agency Workers (Equal Treatment) Bill
9:30 am
Jonathan Djanogly (Shadow Minister, Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform; Huntingdon, Conservative)
I thank the Minister for saying that he will put a copy of the agreement in the Library. I have not seen a copy, so it is difficult for me to comment on it, other than in the broad terms that I used with the media, having seen the media reports yesterday. I maintained at the start of the Committee that I thought it should be adjourned straight away, so it would be strange if I now changed my mind. The matter was always one that should have been dealt with by the Government rather than Back Benchers, and a large part of my complaint was that the Government were not leading but were being led by their Back Benchers.
