The British business organization the Institute of Directors put out a series of recommendations that it says will boost private sector growth. the proposals include curbing negotiating power for unions, reducing the number of worker complaints through fees, and stopping collective pay bargaining in some sectors. A representative of the Trades Union Congress said that the cuts would not generate growth, but hurt workers by cutting rights at work. They say that the rights of workers are not the reason that the economy has stagnated. The government said that they are committed to deficit reduction and economic growth, but did not say if they would implement the proposals.
