That this House notes International Cleaners' Day on 16 June 2014; celebrates the achievements of trades union-organised cleaners; recognises that the London living wage is now paid to nearly 10,000 cleaners; welcomes the representation brought to many otherwise vulnerable workers by trades unions; celebrates the recognition of the importance of cleaning work and those who carry it out; and further recognises the dignity and respect that cleaners across the world have fought for and won in their workplaces.
