Leaving the EU: Workers’ Rights

Debate between Bim Afolami and Andrea Leadsom

Tuesday 29th October 2019 Commons Chamber

[Bim Afolami (Hitchin and Harpenden) (Con)]

Does the Secretary of State agree that if the Prime Minister’s deal, negotiated with the European Union, is ratified by this House, on leaving the EU the UK will have better and stronger workers’ rights than the bare bones provided by the EU?

[Andrea Leadsom]

Yes, my hon. Friend is exactly right.
