Union Protection Act II
-
I have no idea what you are trying to say, Councillor Tusk, except that you will oppose this act if Councillors do not vote for it and support it if they do, which is not something I, nor anyone else, in this chamber can rectify. If this is a violation of sovereignty, and, for example, marriage equality, which is of course of similar importance and necessity, is not, then I have no idea what sovereignty is anymore. Could you please, at the very least, elaborate on what exactly you mean so that I can address this problem?
In response to the issues raised by Councillors Lallana and Kohout, I propose the following amendments:
AMENDMENT I
IV. Labor unions shall be free of acts of interference by outside actors. In all cases, regardless of ownership, they shall be self-governed. Attempts to subjugate labor unions to an employer, employers, or employers' organization(s) by interfering in their internal administration and activities whether direct or indirect and through any means, are considered acts of interference and are thus prohibited, although acts of interference are not limited to these.AMENDMENT II
I. Definitions
I. Labor union - an organization of workers who have come together to further and/or defend their interests.
II. Cartel - a group of independent participants in the economy who collude as to improve profits and/or establish a monopoly
III. Strike - a mass refusal of employees to work, most often a result of grievances.
IV. RIght to recourse - the ability of a party in a given conflict to contact and utilize a third party for the purpose of intevention in the conflict.
I don't feel as though I can address Councillor Lallana's third point, however, as the two sections outline slightly different things, meaning that the exception made could in itself have exceptions.
