Regular readers of this blog will know my obsession interest in the blacklisting scandal which has recently enveloped the construction industry.
I understand the Guardian is to carry tomorrow a very interesting article in the business section which adds more background to the on-going story.
Meanwhile, as of end of April, the Information Commissioner's Office hotline, where people can check if they were on Ian Kerr's files has had 1,165 calls, 242 information packs have been sent out, 124 have been returned and 122 individual files have been issued. There were more than 3,000 people on Kerr's files . . . so where are all these workers now?
Update: Construction News reports that Ucatt is considering a group civil claim against construction companies. Over at the Socialist Party and they report on a meeting at Fiddlers Ferry which several blacklisted electricians have mentioned to me is a site where they have found it difficult to get work.
