HC Deb 22 March 1951 vol 485 c338W
Mr. Grimond

asked the Minister of Labour what representations he has received for the amendment of the existing Dock Labour Scheme in relation to ports in the North of Scotland.

Mr. Bevan

Apart from a local proposal transmitted by the hon. Member to my predecessor to bring the port of Lerwick within the scheme, and a suggested amendment of the definition of dock labour at the port of Aberdeen, no representations have been received for the amendment of the existing Dock Labour Scheme in relation to ports in the North of Scotland.
