Blacklisted Workers (No. 2)

EDM number 797 in 2012-13, proposed by Alan Meale on 29/11/2012.
Categorised under the topic of Employment.

That this House is aware of the campaign led principally by the trades unions, the GMB, UNITE, UCATT and others for justice for blacklisted workers, many of whose lives have been ruined by the secretive and malicious practice which has denied them employment in their industry without them having either the knowledge or privilege of being able to see or challenge informationlisted against them; believes such practices to be fundamentally wrong and against the very principles of freedom and democracy; and calls on the Government to condemn such behaviour and consider introducing new legislation to prohibit such practices.

This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs.
