HC Deb 27 March 1981 vol 1 c449W
Mr. Campbell-Savours

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what guidance he gives to employers in respect of their obligations to pay severance payments.

Mr. Peter Morrison

Guidance on statutory redundancy payments is available to employers and other inquirers from the local offices of my Department.

Severance payments in excess of the statutory entitlement are a matter for individual managements and workers' representatives.

Mr. Campbell-Savours

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what representations he has received about the withdrawal of severance payments by employers.

Mr. Peter Morrison

None.
