JUSTICE FOR TERM TIME WORKERS

Early day motion 750, tabled 2 March 2004 by Alan Meale (Labour). Signed by 52 members.

That this House is alarmed that significant numbers of term-time-only paid education staff in UK schools are currently discriminated against in terms of their pay and employment conditions at work; believes such inequalities in public service employment contracts to be both unfair and unacceptable; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to persuade all local education authorities to introduce as soon as possible a fairer and more equitable system for those workers forthwith.

Signatures by party: Labour 38, Liberal Democrat 6, Labour/Co-operative 4, DUP 3, UUP 1.
