Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Bill [HL]

Is the Minister saying that continuous employment does not mean continuous employment with one employer? I think that that needs to be very clear. Continuous employment—not in domestic employment but generally—has been seen in many cases in the courts as involving one employer. That point has been made by UNISON in particular, as the noble Baroness, Lady Miller, said. The Government need to be clear about it. Do they want the courts to find that this is one employer? The word continuous is not same as continual; there is a real difference and I am not sure that the Government have taken it on board.
