Debate
Employment Rights BillContribution
Many of the young manufacturing workers at Alexander Dennis, which has been a staple industry in Falkirk, will benefit from the Bill. The apprentices and young manufacturing workers whose rights will be uplifted from the baseline will benefit from today’s announcement because bus manufacturing will continue to exist in the Falkirk area, as it has done for a century. The announcement gives us at least six months to make the move permanent; the work to make it permanent must start today, and I am glad to have written to several Ministers about that.
