This work brings together in one source all the industrial relations and trade union statutory material in force in Ireland today. This provides a major service to the practitioner, for although the Industrial Relations Act 1990 substantially reformed Irish law in this area, sections from a number of earlier Acts remain in force, including four pieces of pre-1922 legislation which have since been repealed within the jurisdiction of the UK. * The first time all such extant legislation has been collected together - much of which is not otherwise easily available * Each Act and Statutory Instrument is annotated with reference to case law, books, articles and parlimentary debates * All textual amendments, adaptions and repeals are clearly shown.
