Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Bill

Proceeding contribution from Julie Elliott (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 October 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Bill.

Can my hon. Friend clarify something for me? The Minister said that, by definition, a settlement agreement would not amount to sacking an employee. Under the new sanctions regime for jobseeker’s allowance, if someone leaves their job voluntarily they cannot claim JSA for 13 weeks. Would a settlement agreement amount to them leaving their job voluntarily?
