§ Mr. Prescottasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has any statement to make on the Anglo-American Productivity Team report on cotton spinning.
Mr. H. WilsonThis report is not, of,course. an official document and has been88W made to the United Kingdom cotton spinning trade organisations and unions. I hope that these bodies, as well as all those engaged in the industry, will give this excellent report the serious consideration it deserves and take appropriate action on its conclusions. My Department is studying the report and, in so far as there are problems on which we can help, I am prepared to consider recommendations from the industry.
