Holland v London Society of Compositors and Another: 1924

A provincial trade union had agreed with a London union that if a member of the former was offered a job in London, he would be entitled to membership of the latter. Mr Justice Lush said that: ‘He could not accept the contention that the contract was made for any individual or for his behoof and benefit, but it was made by the trade unions concerned for their own purposes.’
