Contribution

52: Schedule 2, page 181, leave out lines 30 to 44 and insert— “(3) It is immaterial for the purposes of subsection (1)(d) or (e) whether or not the proceedings were, or would have been, well-founded provided that the agency worker acted in good faith in bringing the proceedings or alleging the existence of the circumstance.”Member’s explanatory statement This amendment, together with my amendment to Schedule 2, page 181, line 25, replaces the current subsections (3) and (4) of proposed section 47I of the Employment Rights Act 1996 so that they work correctly for all categories of proceedings mentioned in subsection (1)(d) of that proposed section.
