Summary
Hussey asked whether the Government would give women working at home a legal right to part of family income; the Minister said he knew of no plans.
Given the campaign against this scheme waged from the day it was announced and given that it was a new and complex idea, would the Minister not agree that the figure of 49,000 represents a real and genuine interest by women in this scheme? If so, could he inform us if he or the Government have any plans to initiate a scheme whereby women working at home will be given legal rights to part of the family income?
