Private Equity (Transfer of Undertakings and Protection of Employment) Bill

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman and am delighted to hear that he is waiting in anticipation of what I might say further. I am sorry, Madam Deputy Speaker, if hon. Members feel that I am going too slowly, but I like to think that I am being generous in giving way to interventions. When we are conducting a debate, it is important to allow interventions so that Members can press their points, and I have been generous in allowing the hon. Gentleman to intervene. If he wants me to get on with my speech, perhaps it would be better if he and his hon. Friends did not intervene.
