STUC back new deal for workers and devolution
Anas Sarwar

THE STUC backed a new deal for workers today, but vowed to fight on for the devolution of employment law.

The final day of congress got underway with a session on employment rights, their erosion, and how to boost workplace power in the years ahead.

Over the previous three days, congress had repeatedly heard from delegates across the country as they detailed the effects of decades of legislation that has sought to curtail trade union activity, including the most recent Strikes (Minimum Services) Act.
