Jacob Collier

Labour — Burton and Uttoxeter

Speaking in the House of Commons on 27 October 2025

Debate

Statutory Maternity and Paternity Pay

Contribution

Absolutely. I know that my hon. Friend has a lot of experience in his own family to bring to this debate, and I wonder if his daughter is watching it. A parental leave system that works for every family, for employers and freelancers, and for single parents and kinship carers alike is not a cost to be endured but an investment in our shared future. It is in that spirit that I look forward to hearing the rest of the debate tonight.
