Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 July 2025
Debate
Employment Rights BillContribution
It seems it is okay to ignore that manifesto undertaking, since the consultation on this critical change, and many of the others in the Bill, will take place after the Bill has passed. The Government might argue that the legislation being passed includes the regulations, but the problem there is that the Bill itself prejudges the consultation by restricting the valid reasons for dismissal during the probation period.
