Work and Families Bill

I was not on the Committee for this Bill, and I would like to ask the Minister and her colleagues a quick question. The proposal in the amendment seems so obvious and logical in the context of the Bill, and I wonder why it was not in the original Bill. Why was it necessary for the Government to table this amendment? I applaud them for so doing, but I wonder whether there is a good reason why the proposal was not considered in the first place.
