Employment Rights BillContribution
147: Leave out Clause 59
Member's explanatory statement
This amendment would retain the 2016 cross-party compromise (agreed by the House without a division) whereby new members of a union contribute to the political fund only if they have actively chosen to do so. That compromise was based on the conclusions of the Trade Union Political Funds and Political Party Funding Committee.
