Trade Union Rights At Gchq

EDM number 595 in 1996-97, proposed by Nigel Jones on 27/02/1997.

That this House congratulates those trades unionists and other workers who have fought for the restoration of trade union rights at GCHQ since 1984; and calls on the Government, in the last few days of its administration, to make amends for its denial of civil rights to the employees of GCHQ by restoring to each individual the right to belong to a trade union of their choice and by paying appropriate compensation to those who were dismissed for staying true to their beliefs.

This motion has been signed by a total of 70 MPs.
