Employment Bill [HL]

I thank the noble Baroness for that most helpful steer. If she had had the pleasure of being in the earlier days in Committee in this Room she would have found that the informality has led to all sorts of conversations. I want to be very sure that I am getting the official view. I have to remember all the time that the Minister is not a member of the Labour Party, and I am therefore not sure if I am hearing the Government’s view or his.
