Form 7 Negotiating with unions
I want to know if its legal for a union branch to withold dues and agency fees from their National office and continue to be recognised as legal operating union. How should they manage and administer those monies?
Reply to Zobalonda: Thisis not something that is specifically dealt with by the LRA. It seems to be an internal matter within the union structures that shold be taken up with the national office.
