We will get to the consideration in
detail stage because the presentation the member has given is completely wrong.
Let me make it clear: last week, on Thursday, the member said —
At
the outset, on the nominal issue of dealing with modern slavery, obviously, on
this side we are concerned no more and no less than the government that
this is dealt with properly �
Yet the member voted against that.
The member personally, and the member next to him as well, voted that down.
