Clause 26 - Dismissal for use of union services or
Employment Relations Bill
3:15 pm

Mr Henry Bellingham (North West Norfolk, Conservative)
Before we leave the clause, I have two questions for the Minister. Although my face may look long and drawn, I am not that unhappy about clause 26. Did the Wilson and Palmer judgment really require the Government to extend the meaning of appropriate time? Did it really require them to extend the definition of trade union services? I ask those questions because in my opinion it does not.
