Any registered-
trade union may resolve to amalgamate with one or more other trade unions, whether or not those other trade unions are registered; and
The amalgamating trade unions or amalgamating employers' organizations may apply to the registrar for registration of the amalgamated trade union or amalgamated employers' organization, even if any of the amalgamating trade unions or amalgamating employers' organisations is itself already registered, and the registrar must treat the application as an application in terms of section 96.

all the assets, rights, obligations and liabilities of the amalgamating trade unions or the amalgamating employers' organisations devolve upon and vest in the amalgamated trade union or amalgamated employers' organisation; and
any right that the amalgamating trade unions or the amalgamating employers' organisations enjoyed;
any fund established in terms of this Act or any other law;
any arbitration award or court order;
any collective agreement or other agreement;
membership of any council; and
