Trade Union Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lady Hermon (Independent (affiliation)) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 September 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Trade Union Bill.

The hon. Gentleman will be well aware, I am sure, that a very high percentage of people who are trade union representatives and members are extremely concerned about this Bill’s possible infringement

of their right and freedom to assemble, which is guaranteed by article 11 of the European convention on human rights. Whatever he and his colleagues think about it, that was the best decision the Labour party made when it brought it home in the Human Rights Act 1998. Where in this Bill can he point to the guarantee that there will not be an infringement of article 11 of the European convention?
