The Government proposes to make a minor change to the law on collective redundancies concerning the duty on employers to inform the Secretary of State about collective redundancies. The amendment is being proposed as a consequence of the European Court of Justice decision in the case of Junk v Kühnel.
This consultation document presents draft Regulations which will effect the change. They are intended to make it clear that notification to the Secretary of State of proposed redundancies should take place before a notice of dismissal has been issued.
This consultation document seeks views on whether the proposed change in the law is required, and asks for comments on the detailed drafting in the Regulations.

A copy of the Collective Redundancies (Amendment) Regulations 2006 (SI 2387/2006) can be obtained from the Office of Public Sector Information website (OPSI). (See link below in "Consultation Documents")
