The Relationship Between Organisational Structure and Industrial Relations in the Local Government CCT Environment
Abstract
The policy of compulsory competitive tendering (CCT) for local government manual services was widely extended by the Local Government Act 1988. The stated objective of this legislation was that competition would ensure value for money in the delivery of public services. Trade unionists interpreted the policy in largely negative terms seeing it as another central government tool to weaken the power of the collective thus forcing down the pay and conditions of their members.
