Strikes (Minimum Service Levels) Bill

Baroness O’Grady of Upper Holloway moved Motion C1, as an amendment to Motion C, at end to insert “and do propose Amendment 4B in lieu—4B Page 4, line 40, at end insert—“234CA Protection of employees(1) A person is not subject to a work notice if they have not received a copy of it in accordance with the time limits specified in section 234C(3).(2) It is for the employer to prove that the work notice was received in conformity with subsection (1).(3) An employee may not be dismissed or subjected to any detriment for failing to comply with a work notice and any such dismissal shall be treated as a dismissal to which section 152 applies and any such detriment shall be treated as a detriment to which section 146 applies.(4) A work notice does not place a contractual obligation on an employee to comply with it.””The House divided:

The party breakdowns are our own analysis of the official voting records (recorded votes only; they do not describe the formal whip). How we work this out.

Peers attend divisions ad hoc, so there is no did-not-vote list. Tellers are counted in the Content and Not Content totals, unlike in the Commons.

Tellers: Lord Kennedy of Southwark (Content), Baroness Wheeler (Content), The Earl of Courtown (Not Content), Baroness Williams of Trafford (Not Content).
