If I remember correctly, someone in this forum just after the ASTI accepted the Haddington Road deal in a second ballot that, if the ASTI had still rejected the deal in that ballot, industrial action by the union would have included refusal to co-operate with inspectors.

Has a policy of refusing to co-operate with inspectors ever been enacted or at least considered by a teachers' union?

I don't know the legal and contractual implications of that policy but the ASTI's refusal to teach what were then the new syllabi in Leaving Cert subjects Biology and Home Economics until its eventual acceptance of the syllabi in a ballot in December 2002 must have also been illegal but that didn't stop the ASTI from doing it.
