TUC Congress

I’m currently getting ready for the TUC Congress which starts in Brighton on Monday. Napo’s delegation meets on Sunday.

The TUC Website contains all the papers including the motions for debate, -the Final Agenda.

Napo has submitted motions on the Single Equalities Act, Motion 22, and the Criminal Justice System, Motion 63.

I have just prepared a speech on the Single Equalities Act motion using the TUC submission to this recent consultation and Napo (briefer) contribution.
