Daniel Barnett's fundraising project

Daniel Barnett is a barrister specialising in employment law.  He provides a very useful (free) email update service called Employment Law Bulletin.  it covers latest developments in the area and the service has just reached its 10th anniversary.  To celebrate Daniel has launched a fundraising campaign to raise £10,000 for the children’s charity Starlight, which supports seriously and terminally ill children.  I am delighted to support such a worthy cause and if you wish to do so as well, please go to the link below;

Good luck Daniel!

TUPE

Apart from the post below I haven’t touched upon these regulations, mainly because they are not the most interesting regulations in the world to read.  However, I have been spurred on by posting on the case of Royden & others v Barnetts  (see below) and TUPE comes up quite a few times on the search engines as a keyword.  In future posts I will look at the TUPE issues on the insolvency of the employer as well as the consultation obligations imposed upon employers by TUPE.

So, what do the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE) actually do?
