§ 92. Mr. Awberyasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will, in order to reassure the workers of Malaya, give an assurance that the Registrar of Trade Unions in the Federation does not examine the minutes of the unions' business, nor lists of membership, and that he acts in accordance in this respect with British trade union practices.
§ Mr. J. GriffithsThe Registrar does not examine trade union minutes, nor has he the power to do so. He has, however, the right to inspect subscription registers, as part of his general supervision of trade union accounts and to safeguard the interests of the members.
