BLACKLISTED WORKERS (No. 2)

Early day motion 797, tabled 29 November 2012 by Alan Meale (Labour). Signed by 32 members.

That this House is aware of the campaign led principally by the trades unions, the GMB, UNITE, UCATT and others for justice for blacklisted workers, many of whose lives have been ruined by the secretive and malicious practice which has denied them employment in their industry without them having either the knowledge or privilege of being able to see or challenge informationlisted against them; believes such practices to be fundamentally wrong and against the very principles of freedom and democracy; and calls on the Government to condemn such behaviour and consider introducing new legislation to prohibit such practices.

Signatures by party: Labour 27, Conservative 1, Liberal Democrat 1, Plaid Cymru 1, Respect 1, Social Democratic and Labour Party 1.
