PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Conditions of Employment: Public Consultation (18 July 2024)

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, with reference to the Government's plans to legislate on employment law within 100 days, what his planned timetable if for consulting on those legislative proposals.

Asked by:
Gareth Bacon (Conservative)

The Government is committed to delivering the plan to Make Work Pay in full. The Employment Rights Bill will be key to delivery and we are committed to introducing this legislation to improve the rights of workers within 100 days.The details of this are in rapid development

Some parts of the plan to Make Work Pay will take longer to review and implement. Work is underway to prepare consultations on several aspects of the plan. There are also parts of the plan that will not require primary legislation to implement. Ministers are identifying the most appropriate delivery mechanisms for the commitments in the plan and are committed to carrying out full and comprehensive consultation on the implementation of the plan to Make Work Pay.
