The UK Government has confirmed that it is likely to scrap the ‘Two Tier Code’ for local government. Speaking at a CBI dinner earlier this week, Communities Secretary, Eric Pickles, said:
“I can reveal today I am actively considering scrapping the so-called Local Authority Two-Tier Code. Where councils outsource functions, it required private firms to employ new workers on the same terms as the public sector workers who transferred across.”
