HL Deb 29 January 1975 vol 356 cc557-8WA
Lord O'HAGAN

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How British Trade Unions will be represented on the EEC's Standing Committee on Employment, the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training, and the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.

The MINISTER of STATE, SCOTTISH OFFICE (Lord HUGHES)

This is a matter for the TUC, but the European Trade Union Confederation, to which it is affiliated, will fill the majority of the trade union seats on the Standing Employment Committee and nominate representatives to the other bodies.
