Amendment 216FA responds to the Government’s overbroad freeze by introducing a principled, narrowed gateway. Only where genuine substantial operational restructuring has materially altered the bargaining unit should the CAC be able to revisit appropriateness, even within the three-year window. This preserves the stability that the Government seek, while preventing the disfranchisement of workers or misalignment of collective bargaining, so I urge the Committee to support this amendment.
