I was delighted to present awards at the Asian Voice Event in the Terrace Pavillion at the House of Commons on 10 March 2016. These are always very exciting events and are a way of acknowledging the hard work and enterprise of the awardees, who in many cases have successful lives from often a very humble start. The Awards honour outstanding personalities and celebrate their achievements in their respective fields.
“I am delighted that the Government was defeated and Sunday Trading laws remain unchanged. I signed an amendment tabled by David Burrowes MP to the Enterprise Bill to remove the extension of Sunday trading laws. The Bill in its original form would have caused a domino effect of longer working hours on Sunday across the country.This was an important amendment as the UK already has some of the longest trading hours in Europe, with over 150 shopping hours a week. This result was also a triumph for democracy as a staggering 67% of the British Public oppose extending Sunday trading hours.
Valerie Vaz: "It is a pleasure to follow the right hon. Member for Basingstoke (Mrs Miller), and I congratulate everyone who is taking part in the debate. I apologise for squeezing a nine-minute speech into four minutes.
