§ Mrs. Joyce Butlerasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what representations have been made to him as to the need for an official form of agreement for completion by both parties when au pair girls come to this country; and what has been his reply.
§ Sir F. SoskiceI have had under consideration a proposal made to me by the Employment Agents Federation of Great Britain for the introduction, on a compulsory basis, of an official form of agreement for completion by the parties to every au pair arrangement. I have advised the Federation that I do not feel able to accept the proposal in its present form and I have suggested further discussion with officials.
