HC Deb 17 November 1969 vol 791 cc207-8W
Dr. Summerskill

asked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity whether she will recommend the ratification by the Government of the Inter national Labour Organisation's Convention 111, concerning discrimination in employment.

Mr. Harold Walker

Yes, when we are satisfied that we can meet its requirements including action against discrimination in pay on grounds of sex. We hope to deal with this in legislation to be introduced this Session.
