Let me declare an interest. I have been the managing director of a company employing 140 people who has been the target of vexatious claims. I hope that that interest is well understood by Labour Members.
I draw my hon. Friend's attention to the statement in proposed new section 238AA(2):"““A worker has the right not to be subjected to any detriment by any act, or deliberate failure to act, by his employer””."
Does that not give an employee who has not been promoted a year and a half after industrial action the right to claim constructive dismissal on the basis that he was denied promotion because he had taken part in that strike?
