- Submitted by: John Finnie, Highlands and Islands, Scottish National Party.
- Date lodged: Tuesday, 06 March 2012
- Motion reference: S4M-02225
That the Parliament notes with concern reports suggesting the existence of a so-called blacklist of construction workers who have, as a consequence of participating in trade union activities, been identified as troublesome; understands that an investigation by the Information Commissioner’s Office has concluded that the list contains information that could only have been provided by the police or security services; believes that, should it have taken place, such collusion is completely unacceptable, and condemns any companies or organisations that participate in the creation or use of such blacklists.
