I have been actively supporting my constituents affected by the termination of CMutual's Family Protection Plan.

At the Scottish Affairs Committee meeting on recent STV proposals to cut news jobs in the north east, I questioned STV bosses on their failure to collaborate with unions in their request for collective consultation in order to reduce potential job losses & mitigate consequences.

At the debate on statutory maternity & paternity pay, I highlighted that the UK Labour Government's review of parental leave should include a significant rise in pay to at least to the national living wage & new dads should have minimum 6 weeks of leave at full pay.

The Prime Minister confirmed to me today that he raised the case of my constituent, Jagtar Singh Johal, arbitrarily detained in India for 8 years now, during his meeting with Prime Minister Modi in India.

It's time he is released immediately & returned home to his family in Dumbarton.
