Legislative Scrutiny: Strikes (Minimum Service Levels) Bill 2022-2023

Legislative scrutiny

The Joint Committee on Human Rights carries out scrutiny on legislation that engages human rights. We will be carrying out legislative scrutiny in respect of the Strikes (Minimum Service Levels) Bill because it engages ECHR rights including the right to freedom of assembly and association under Article 11, as well as the right to strike as recognised in other international instruments that the UK has ratified.
