Trade Union Rights

EDM number 986 in 2012-13, proposed by John McDonnell on 29/01/2013.
Categorised under the topics of Human rights and Industrial relations.

That this House calls on the Government to act on the recommendations made in the statement by the UN Special Rapporteur on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association after his visit to the UK in which he states that it is time to bring the UK back into conformity with human rights law by repealing the constraints on the right to strike, introduced in 1982, and that it is crucial that strong action is taken against the making and using of blacklists.

This motion has been signed by a total of 28 MPs.
