HC Deb 26 October 1979 vol 972 c333W
Mr. Cryer

asked the Lord Privy Seal whether he will take steps to raise standards of safety, employment protection and trade union rights in Hong Kong to those of the United Kingdom.

Mr. Blaker

These are matters for the Hong Kong Government. The progress being made in these fields is illustrated by the steadily increasing number of International Labour Organisation conventions being applied in the territory. Hong Kong's record compares favourably with that of any country in the region.
