• ASLEF: How to reintroduce an integrated system of industrial relations on the railways. Link

• Creators' Rights Alliance: How to strengthen and extend the law of copyright to protect the interests of writers. Link

• TGWU: To examine the labour legislation reforms being suggested in Jersey, analyse their likely impact and suggest how best to resist the legislation with reference to international standards.
