Blacklisting Ruins Lives

EDM number 2093 in 2008-09, proposed by Michael Clapham on 19/10/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Employment and Industrial relations.

That this House was most concerned to learn that blacklisting of trade unionists was an activity that still continued and welcomes the publication of the report, Ruined Lives prepared by Professor Keith Ewing for the Union of Construction, Allied Trades and Technicians and which will be launched on 20 October 2009; and argues that the scope of the new regulations should be wider than outlawing blacklisting for trade union activities and that injustice should be a compensatable offence.

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