Mr. Adrian Cummins:

I fully agree with my colleagues. This Bill needs to be put to one side and we need to start from scratch. We need good quality research on the matter. When the previous Minister decided to look into this, he looked into zero-hour contracts. The UL was given a job to do and found none of that. Then they said they had better find something and they found so-called if-and-when contracts. We need to ensure that any proposed legislation is good legislation. It needs to be fit for purpose. There is no credible research to back up this Bill.
