Latest news on the Lawful Industrial Action (Minor Errors) Bill 2010-12
The Bill failed to complete its passage through Parliament before the end of the session. This means the Bill will make no further progress.Summary of the Lawful Industrial Action (Minor Errors) Bill 2010-12
The Bill proposes reducing regulatory burdens on trade unions in relation to the balloting and notice requirements for lawful industrial action.
It would extend the provision for small accidental errors contained in section 232B of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992.
The burden of proof in applications by an employer to restrain strike action by injunction would be changed, so that the employer would have to show that the union has failed to achieve 'substantial compliance' with the ballot and notice requirements.
