Speaking in the House of Lords on 28 October 2025
Debate
Employment Rights BillContribution
I turn to Motion H relating to Amendment 48, as well as Motion H1 relating to an amendment in lieu tabled by the noble Lord, Lord Sharpe of Epsom. The amendment in lieu seeks to insert into the Bill a new legal definition of “seasonal work”, to which the Secretary of State would have the power to add certain sectors. It would also insert a new obligation on the Secretary of State to have regard to the characteristics of seasonal work, as newly defined, when making regulations under Part 1. I thank the noble Lord again for raising the important issue of seasonal work.
