Message | Mr Speaker, Child labour includes basic jobs such as a paper round. Surely we should be allowing our kids to earn extra pocket money with little jobs such as these? Take note that there are additional regulations to those of adult labourers, this means a child cannot do any job too taxing for them, and is generally restricted to simple jobs such as said paper round. Sara Voight, Former Finance Minister |
