I am arguing that it does solve the issue. As the Minister knows, legal advice through trade unions is given by solicitors who are retained by the union. I do not know any trade union official who would, unless he or she is legally trained, claim to give advice on the law. I do not wish to nitpick here, but it is a valid point.
