Mr. Rossi

Since the debate on the Address on 21 November, my right hon. Friend and ministerial colleagues and officials in this and other Departments, including the Department of Industry, have continued to have discussions with representatives of various organisa tions, not just about the changes that he announced during the debate, but also about other aspects of our statutory sick-pay proposals.
