Captain BENNasked the Prime Minister whether the Government has considered the question of setting up a new Civil Service Arbitration Board; and with what result?
§ Mr. BALDWINThe Government see no reason for reversing the decision arrived at last year to bring to an end the special Arbitration Board for the Civil Service. I may remind the hon. and gallant Member that Whitley machinery has been elaborated and is continually in operation throughout the Civil Service, and that when circumstances make it desirable, resort is possible to the Industrial Court.
