Lord Fox (LD)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 13 May 2025

Debate

Employment Rights Bill

Contribution

With all due respect, this Bill is full of situations in which the consultation for its implementation is yet to be completed. Having adopted a principle in primary legislation, one more consultation would hardly stain the integrity of this Bill. If the Government wanted to, they could very well take on kinship care and fill in the details later—that is what they are doing with the rest of the Bill.
