Speaking in the House of Lords on 10 June 2025

Debate

Employment Rights Bill

Contribution

On Amendments 216YC and 216YD from the noble Baroness, Lady Coffey, Clause 58 will amend Section 73 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act to remove the requirement on unions to pass a political resolution every 10 years to maintain the union’s political fund. The proposal in Amendment 216YC would reverse the effects of Clause 58 and require a majority of all union members to vote in favour of a political resolution, rather than the simple majority that is currently required.
