Debate
Employment Rights BillContribution
The Opposition argued in Committee that we should not legislate in response to individual cases, but I disagree. Once it has been proven that a system can be exploited, more will follow. Amazon’s actions at Coventry are clearly contrary to the intention of the House of Commons when it established the statutory recognition regime 26 years ago. Freezing the bargaining unit is incredibly important, as is the extension of the code of practice.
