Proceeding contribution from Nick Palmer (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Employment Bill [Lords].
Employment Bill [Lords]
The new clause does, however, say that"““if…one of the reasons was…industrial action””," so the employer could demonstrate a perfectly valid reason for dismissal, but, if he was unable to prove that he was not also influenced by the threat of industrial action, he would not be able to proceed.
