HC Deb 07 March 1951 vol 485 cc418-9
23. Mr. James Johnson

asked the Postmaster-General if, before announcing the terms of reference for the Trade Union Recognition Policy Committee, he consulted the representatives of the Civil Service unions; and with what result.

Mr. Ness Edwards

Yes, Sir; a satisfactory understanding was reached.

Mr. Johnson

May I now take it that there is no substance in the allegations that these unions were not consulted?

Mr. Ness Edwards

The Civil Service unions who were concerned in this were consulted.
