TRADE UNION LAW.
BRITISH EMPLOYERS’ PROPOSALS
THE PROTECTION OF CONTRACTS (Received Monday, 6.50 p.m.) LONDON, February 7. In view of the Baldwin Government’s proposed reform of the trade union laws, the Engineering Employers’ National Federation proposes the following:— (1) A trade union should be liable for damages in respect of tortious acts committed by them or on their behalf. (2) The breaking of contracts of employment in furtherance of trade disputes should be actionable. (3) In connection with political levies provision should be made for contracting in, instead of contracting out. (4) Mass picketing and the picketing of houses should be illegal. The federation adds that provident funds should not be available to meet claimd in respect of damages.—(A. and N.Z.)
