This small amount of working hours would not prevent them taking children to and from school, but would help them regain their work ethic, and ultimately lead to a more independent mindset for Britain's population.\r\n\r\nI would not propose aiming this at single parents of under school-aged children unless free child care is made easily available.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":1,"created_at":"2011-08-26T14:16:39.000Z","updated_at":"2020-02-16T19:27:09.162Z","rejected_at":"2017-06-21T12:35:09.909Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2011-08-26T14:16:39.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":null},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
