Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
| "To deny the right of workers to assemble in unions, is authoritarian and essentially amounts to the denial of the right of free association. It is against the principles of the "open state" and contradictory to freedom of thought and obstructs the flow of individual or collective ideas. By restoring these rights we are declaring "fair game", for employers and employees alike. " - Guy Verhofstadt. |
