Employment Rights BillContribution
55: Schedule 2, page 184, leave out lines 31 to 37 and insert—
“(4) It is immaterial for the purposes of subsection (3) whether or not the proceedings were, or would have been, well-founded provided that the employee acted in good faith in bringing the proceedings or alleging the existence of the circumstance.”Member’s explanatory statement
This amendment is consequential on my amendment to Schedule 2, page 184, line 26 and, together with my amendment to Schedule 2, page 184, line 28, reflects the approach taken in other of my amendments to Schedule 2 by replacing the current subsections (4) and (5) with provision that works for all the categories of proceedings.
