HC Deb 23 May 1962 vol 660 c39W
35. Mr. W. Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what representations he has received from organisations and from individuals, respectively, in the last month, concerning the pay and conditions of nurses; and what was the nature of his reply.

Mr. Maclay

In the past month I have received representations from two trade union branches and a number of individuals about the handling of the nurses' claim and the amount offered by the management side. I am indicating in reply that the management side in making this offer were observing the Government's incomes policy.
