Clause 25 - Detriment for use of union services or
Employment Relations Bill
3:15 pm

Mr Gerry Sutcliffe (Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Employment Relations, Competition and Consumers), Department of Trade and Industry; Bradford South, Labour)
That would not be in the spirit of what we are trying to achieve. The definition of trade union services is fair, and I am sorry that the hon. Gentleman does not believe that I have answered his points. As I said at the start, nothing that I could say would answer them, and I cannot take the matter any further.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 25 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
