Mr. Harvey

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what assessment he has made of the legal protection covering British citizens working abroad; and what assessment he has made of the advantages of introducing protection in British law. [3775]

The Government have not undertaken an assessment but are aware that different protections apply in other member states of the European Union and other countries. The Government are satisfied with the protections given to employees in this country.
