S5M-05864 Jamie Hepburn: Protecting Workers' Rights—That the Parliament recognises the
vital role of trade unions to Scotland's economy, society and its workforce; supports the Fair Work
agenda to protect the rights of all workers in Scotland regardless of sector, background or
employment status; is concerned about the impact that leaving the EU will have on the workforce
in Scotland; agrees with Scottish Government plans not to impose employment tribunal fees when
powers over tribunals are devolved, and calls on the UK Government to act now to protect workers
across the UK by repealing the Trade Union Act 2016.
