Colliery Canteen Workers Equal Pay Claim

EDM number 945 in 1995-96, proposed by Michael Clapham on 04/06/1996.

That this House welcomes the recent unanimous ruling by the House of Lords in the colliery canteen workers' equal pay claim that BCC's appeal failed in every respect and that there could be cross establishment comparators; and considering that Lord Slynn who delivered the judgement urged negotiations as the most practical way forward for this claim which was started 13 years ago, calls on the President of the Board of Trade to bring the parties together to speedily resolve the claim.

This motion has been signed by a total of 51 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
