Template letter for members to write to their MP about agency workers covering strikes

In response to recent rail strikes, Transport Secretary Rt Hon Grant Shapps MP suggested that agency workers could be brought in to cover striking workers. The REC has been robust in its opposition to this move, including writing to the Business Minister, Paul Scully MP, providing a briefing note to all MPs and Peers, and media engagement. However, legislation to repeal Regulation 7 of the Conduct Regulations has now been confirmed by Business Secretary, Rt Hon Kwasi Kwarteng MP. A vote is expected "very quickly" so if you are willing to write to your MP, please act urgently.
