EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)


Under Schedule A1 to the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992, where the Central Arbitration Committee arranges a ballot on the recognition or derecognition of a trade union for collective bargaining, it must appoint a "qualified independent person" to conduct the ballot.

The Recognition and Derecognition Ballots (Qualified Persons) Order 2000 specifies conditions which must be satisfied in order for an individual or partnership to qualify for appointment as a scrutineer. It also specifies certain bodies by name as being qualified.

This Order amends the 2000 Order by replacing the list of bodies specified by name as being qualified for appointment.

Notes:

 [1] 1992 c. 52. Schedule A1 was inserted by the Employment Relations Act 1999 (c. 26), section 1.back
