Trade Union Disclosure for the period to 31 March 2023
The Trade Union (Facility Time Publication Requirements) Regulations 2017 came into force on 1 April 2017.

In summary, the total number of employees who were relevant union officials in the period to 31 March 2023 was one. The employees spent 1-50% of their working hours on facility time, which equated to a cost of 0.02% of the total wage bill of £5.1m. 100% of the time spent on trade union activities was paid time.
