Untitled edit

A number of countries (including Britain) have passed "Employment Relations Act" s. The expression should not redirect to the New Zealand Act.Johncmullen1960 (talk) 12:45, 13 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Compulsory Unionism edit

Deleted previous addition to Freeloading section

"However, compulsory unionism is incompatible with the right of freedom of association (or non-association) which was one of the rights guaranteed under the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990."

Reason: Compulsory unionism is not incompatible with NZ BOR as freedom of association only protects the right to come together with other individuals and collectively express, promote, pursue and defend common interests. see:freedom of association. Freedom of association does not protect against enforced association as this would be incompatible with several other areas of common law such as imprisonment and the ability to gather taxes (as it could be argued that being forced to be a NZ citizen would be incompatible). --Adam (talk) 17:56, 13 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
