This Order brings into operation on 12th November 2006, the revised Code of Practice on Disclosure of Information to Trade Unions for Collective Bargaining Purposes (the "2006 Code"), which is being issued by the Labour Relations Agency (the "LRA") under Article 90 of the Industrial Relations (Northern Ireland) Order 1992 (the "1992 Order").
The 2006 Code revises the LRA Code of Practice on Disclosure of Information to Trade Unions for Collective Bargaining Purposes (the "1978 Code") which came into operation on 9th October 1978. The 2006 Code contains revisions under Article 90(10) of the 1992 Order for the purpose of bringing it into conformity with statutory provisions which came into effect subsequent to the 1978 Code. The 2006 Code also contains minor grammatical and stylistic changes which modernise the language used within the Code.
The Code of Practice shall be admissible in evidence in any proceedings before an industrial tribunal or the Industrial Court and any provision of the Code which appears to an industrial tribunal or the Industrial Court to be relevant to any question arising in those proceedings shall be taken into account in determining that question.
The Code of Practice on Disclosure of Information to Trade Unions for Collective Bargaining Purposes may be obtained from the LRA.
