Labour (Co-op) — York Central

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 October 2024

Debate

Employment Rights Bill

Contribution

I am grateful to my right hon. Friend for giving way—what an incredible legacy she is setting down today! Adoptive parents clearly need time with their children as they bring them into their family, but self-employed adopters do not have the same privileges. Will my right hon. Friend look at how we can ensure that those parents also have proper statutory rights to take leave and receive pay?
