§ Question accordingly negatived.
§ Ms RuddockI beg to move amendment No. 55, in page 21, leave out lines 15 to 29 and insert—
§ '13—(1) Where under the contract of employment of a shop worker who is either a protected shop worker or an opted-out shop worker—
- (a) the employer is, or may be, required to provide him with shop work for a specified number of hours each week,
- (b) the shop worker has done shop work on Sunday (whether before or after the commencement date), and
- (c) the shop worker gives the employer written notice, signed and dated by the shop worker to the effect that this paragraph is to apply,
§ the employer shall be under a duty as far as reasonably practicable to provide him with shop work on weekdays in excess of the hours normally so worked by the shop worker on weekdays before he ceased to do shop work on Sundays to the extent that his earnings from the shop work so provided are equivalent to the earnings of the shop worker from working on Sunday on the last occasion when he so worked.
§ (2) Any failure of the employer to offer alternative hours of work or to remunerate the shop worker as required by sub-paragraph (1) above shall be regarded for the purposes of paragraph 10 above as a detriment.'.
The Second Deputy ChairmanWith this we may take amendment No. 39, in page 21, line 52, at end insert—
