HC Deb 12 March 1968 vol 760 c277W
Mr. Urwin

asked the Minister of Labour what are the criteria governing his appointment of outside bodies to membership of the National Industrial Safety Council; and if he will list the constituent members.

Mr. Gunter

In deciding the membership of the Industrial Safety Advisory Council I took into account the need to have sufficient representation of industry, the voluntary safety movement and other interests to ensure adequate coverage of the Council's field of work. The membership of the Council comprises five representatives of the Confederation of British Industry, five of the Trades Union Congress, two of the nationalised industries, one each of the British Insurance Association and the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents and includes an independent member.
