§ 31. Mr. TouhigTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what representations she has received about people who are currently working part time because they cannot find a full-time job. [14709]
§ Mr. ForthNo such representations have been made recently. People in Britain welcome the opportunities to choose between full-time and part time work. Only about 14 per cent. of people who work part time do so because they could not find a full-time job.
