Productivity

Proceeding contribution from Marcus Fysh (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 June 2015. It occurred during Opposition day on Productivity.

That is a very good point, and we are pursuing it in the south-west.

People are not just productivity statistics from a survey in a report. What suits one person will not necessarily suit another, and it is wrong to say that lower-paid work is necessarily bad or should not be respected. It is a good thing that all types of jobs are being created. Things are getting better in our country and we must resist talking down the great achievements and sacrifices our people have made over the testing period we are coming out of. We can all play our part to build a better future, and if we do the right thing the statistics will follow.
