To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, pursuant to Answer of 16 March 2018 to Question 132396 on Conditions of Employment, whether his Department is conducting a review on the deregulation of employment rights under existing EU (a) Decisions, (b) Regulations and (c) Directives.

The Government’s position on employment rights was set out recently in the Government Response to the Taylor Review of Modern Working Practices, in which we committed to firm action and future legislation to enhance employment rights. We are currently consulting on how best to achieve this change.
