The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, how many meetings Ministers in his Department have had with trade union officials since 5 July 2024.

Answered by Justin Madders

Ministers have met with many trade unions, representing millions of British workers, on numerous occasions since 5 July 2024. This is part of this government’s regular engagement with union leaders to support our growth mission, including on multiple industrial issues neglected by the previous government.
