HC Deb 24 January 1930 vol 234 cc493-4W
Mr. MANDER

asked the Minister of Labour if she will give a list of the joint industrial councils, Whitley Councils, and similar bodies now functioning in industry in this country?

Miss BONDFIELD

I am sending the hon. Member a list of the Joint (Whitley) Councils now in operation within the knowledge of my Department. The only changes since the list was given in columns 564–566 of the OFFICIAL REPOBT for 22nd March, 1928, are the formation of the Joint Industrial Council for the printing ink and roller-making industry, the abolition of the Interim Industrial Reconstruction Committee for the artificial stone industry and the constitution of the Joint Industrial Council for the cast stone industry, and the establishment of a district council for the West of Scotland textile industry.
