Labour Law In Iraq (No. 3)

EDM number 605 in 2010-12, proposed by David Anderson on 22/07/2010.
Categorised under the topics of Industrial relations and Iraq.

That this House strongly condemns the draconian ministerial decree of 20 July 2010 ordering the immediate closure of all offices of the Electricity Workers Union in Iraq and the prohibition of all trade union activities at the Electricity ministry, its departments and sites as well as all official interaction and communication with the trade unions; urges the withdrawal of this decree; and believes that this illustrates the urgent need for a fair labour law in Iraq.

This motion has been signed by a total of 21 MPs.
