| Message | Mr Speaker, We fully support employee partnerships, but see not why such partnerships should be given an advantage over traditional family businesses. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, The fact of the matter is that in Luthori today, wealth is so much in the hands of a small section of society that the vast majority of people do not have the opportunity to set themselves up as a serious force in business, whether as a DWC or privately-owned family or personal business. This legislation will give working-class people a foot on the ladder. Arthur Smith (General Secretary of Her Majesty's Loyal Trade Unionists) |
