Employment Rights Bill

Contribution

This amendment would provide that the Secretary of State may not amend the list of legislation in Part 1 of Schedule 5 to add an enactment that deals with a transferred matter in Northern Ireland, or vary a reference to such an enactment, without the consent of the appropriate Northern Ireland department. Employment law is generally a transferred matter in relation to Northern Ireland.
