e

the contract must identify the adviser; and

f

the contract must state that the conditions regulating compromise contracts under this Act are satisfied.

4B

A person is a relevant independent adviser for the purposes of subsection (4A)(c)—

a

if he is a qualified lawyer,

b

if he is an officer, official, employee or member of an independent trade union who has been certified in writing by the trade union as competent to give advice and as authorised to do so on behalf of the trade union,

c

if he works at an advice centre (whether as an employee or a volunteer) and has been certified in writing by the centre as competent to give advice and as authorised to do so on behalf of the centre, or

d

if he is a person of a description specified in an order made by the Secretary of State.

4BA

But a person is not a relevant independent adviser for the purposes of subsection (4A)(c) in relation to the complainant—

a

if he is, is employed by or is acting in the matter for the other party or a person who is connected with the other party,

b

in the case of a person within subsection (4B)(b) or (c), if the trade union or advice centre is the other party or a person who is connected with the other party,

c

in the case of a person within subsection (4B)(c), if the complainant makes a payment for the advice received from him, or

if one is a company of which the other (directly or indirectly) has control, or

b

if both are companies of which a third person (directly or indirectly) has control.

4D

An agreement under which the parties agree to submit a dispute to arbitration—

a

shall be regarded for the purposes of subsection (4)(a) and (aa) as being a contract settling a complaint if—

i

the dispute is covered by a scheme having effect by virtue of an order under section 212A of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992, and

ii

the agreement is to submit it to arbitration in accordance with the scheme, but

b

shall be regarded for those purposes as neither being nor including such a contract in any other case.

5

On the application of any person interested in a contract to which subsection (2) applies, a county court or sheriff court may make such order as it thinks just for removing or modifying any term made unenforceable by that subsection; but such an order shall not be made unless all persons affected have been given notice of the application (except where under rules of court notice may be dispensed with) and have been afforded an opportunity to make representations to the court.

An order under subsection (5) may include provision as respects any period before the making of the order.
