This would be true, if the law backed up all representative groups. I have commented before about the difference between negotiation and effective consultation. It is huge and I know, because I am in the middle of it at the moment.

I fully understand that the PCCC are at an early stage in their development, but it would also be fair to say that unless BA grant them a voluntary recognition agreement, they will not be a negotiating body for quite some time; well at least 1250 members and a successful 50% +1 ballot, after de-recognising Unite.
