# The Guarantee Payments (Exemption) (No. 29) Order 1994, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order, which comes into force on 1st July 1994, excludes from the operation of section 12 of the Employment Protection (Consolidation) Act 1978 employees to whom the collective agreement made between the parties described in Schedule 1 to the Order relates. The Order supersedes the Guarantee Payments (Exemption) (No. 3) Order 1977 which is revoked by this Order. The Order is necessary because two of the parties named in Schedule 1 to the 1977 Order, namely the National Federation of Building Trades Employers and the General and Municipal Workers Union have changed their names. With effect from 1st March 1984 the National Federation of Building Trades Employers changed its name to the Building Employers Confederation, and following a merger, the General and Municipal Workers Union became the General Municipal Boilermakers and Allied Trades Union with effect from 1st March 1983 and following a further merger the General Municipal Boilermakers and Allied Trades Union became GMB with effect from 1st March 1989.
Schedule 2 to the Order sets out the material provisions of the 1992 edition of the collective agreement, whereas Schedule 2 to the 1977 Order set out the material provisions of the 1976 edition of the collective agreement. Although there are minor and drafting differences between the two editions of the collective agreement, there have been no changes of substance since the 1977 Order came into force.
Copies of the collective agreement are available for inspection between 10am and noon and between 2pm and 5pm on any weekday (except Saturdays) at the office of the Department of Employment, Caxton House, Tothill Street, London SW1H 9NF.
