This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition Legalize Online voting for Trade unions
More details
Where as professional institutions and societies like the National Trust are permitting to hold ballots via online voting, Trade unions still have to hold paper ballots.
The Conservative Party have proposed that ballots will need backing of 40% of union members but unions technically have one hand tied behind their back by them not permitted to use the latest technology in ballots, which would increase turnout.
This petition therefore calls on the Government to legalize trade union's use of online voting in ballots.
This petition closed early because of a General Election
