Voluntary Sector and Social Enterprise

Proceeding contribution from Lord Prescott (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 21 June 2012. It occurred during Debate on Voluntary Sector and Social Enterprise.

I apologise. I took advice; obviously I got the wrong advice, but I will not exploit that situation. This whole business now means that a massive pool of cheap labour is going to be exploited, and now G4S even wants to buy the police and replace them with this kind of labour. We had better start looking at what is happening with the exploitation of people. I hope we can have a public debate about it. We have started it thanks to the noble Baroness, Lady Scott, and I am obliged to her, but I would like to get into the details of the issue perhaps when there are fewer people here and I can have a longer time to develop the argument.
