They include the right not to be excluded from a union; not to be unjustifiably disciplined; right to resign; not to be expelled; to have a ballot before industrial action; and time off work for trade union duties. The relevant statutory provisions are contained in the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 (TULR(C)A), which has been amended by subsequent legislation, and reference will also be made to a number of legal decisions.
