The opportunity to introduce an effective bar on blacklisting will have been missed and who knows when the legislators will be persuaded to revisit this highly contentious issue. It seems as if the Employers have the ear of Gov't and the victims, past& future, of this pernicious practice have been sidelined once again. I am in total agreement with the learned Professor.
