Union sundown? The future of collective representation
rights in Irish law.

Abstract
This article examines recent developments concerning employee and trade union
rights to collective negotiations with employers. It considers the extent to which
the constitutional guarantee of freedom of association is protected by the present
legal framework. Ireland’s “voluntarist” system of industrial relations is considered
in the light of the enactment of the Industrial Relations (Amendment) Acts 2001–
2004, and the recent interpretation of the legislation in the case of Ryanair v The
Labour Court [2007] I.E.S.C. 6. The article also looks at the future role of the
Labour Court, the State’s main industrial relations tribunal and a key plank of the
voluntarist system.
