Clause 2 - Transfer to Council of property etc of Arts and Humanities Research Board
Higher Education Bill
10:15 am
Mr Chris Grayling (Epsom and Ewell, Conservative)
I am grateful for the Minister's reassurance and for his statement, on the record, that TUPE applies in this case. In the related matter to which I referred, one of the uncertainties in the
separate organisation involved in a similar type of change was that the employers had not made it explicit that TUPE applied, so there was a further uncertainty. The Minister has given a categorical assurance that all employment rights are protected and that there are no missing elements in the package that could slip through the net, and I am grateful to have that clarification on the record. I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
